Kety Fusco proves that beauty can rise from struggle with new single ‘Resistance’

With her second studio album, ‘BOHÈME’, Kety Fusco transforms the harp into an entirely new voice, redefining what this instrument can represent in the contemporary music landscape. This is not just music: it’s a vision. It’s an invitation to explore a sound world that has never existed before.

Every sound in ‘BOHÈME’, which follows acclaim for Kety’s music from BBC 6 Music, The Guardian, Wonderland and more in the UK, originates from the harp, yet nothing is as it seems. Sound manipulations, underwater recordings, and unconventional techniques create a unique musical language, far from traditional boundaries. Among the boldest experiments, Kety literally submerged herself in a pool to record the sounds of the harp underwater, turning the instrument into a medium for narrating the unexpected. This daring approach shines in the opening track, ‘Hi, this is Harp’, a manifesto of sonic avant-garde.

Following her recent single ‘SHE’ ft. Iggy Pop which gained heavy rotation on BBC 6 Music, Kety is now pleased to present an exhilarating new single ‘Resistance’ from the forthcoming new album. ‘Resistance’ is knowing that from struggle and imperfection, beauty can still be born. It is the silent courage of those who keep fighting, even when everything seems not to understand or stands against them. To resist means not to bend, to remain true to oneself, to bloom where no one imagined life could grow. As De André reminded us, not from diamonds, but from waste, flowers are born.
And this is true Resistance: turning rejection into strength, scraps into life, silence into song.

All the sounds in ‘Resistance’ were created exclusively from Kety Fusco’s harp, transformed and pushed beyond its traditional boundaries into a personal, radical sound language. The hypnotic visual for the track combines stunning images of luminous flowers blooming amongst polluted beaches and concrete streets, illustrating the track’s themes of standing one’s ground and continuing to grow in amongst turmoil.

Discovering the harp at just 6 years old, Kety Fusco’s magnetic talent has now taken her to iconic stages such as the Royal Albert Hall, the Montreux Jazz Festival, the Swiss Federal Parliament, and the prestigious Euro Jazz Festival in Mexico. With over 200 concerts worldwide, Kety has redefined the role of the harp, bringing it to the most unexpected contexts: from the Notte della Taranta to the United Nations, and even on a tour of South America for the Swiss Embassies.

An unstoppable composer and creator, Kety has written soundtracks for a film and a documentary set to be released in 2025, as well as composed the theme music for the Rai Radio3 program Voci in Barcaccia. Her original works are a manifesto of artistic freedom, captivating audiences with their fusion of tradition and avant-garde. In 2024, she served as the Swiss juror for the Eurovision Song Contest, adding another milestone to her path of international excellence. The year 2025 promises to be a year of great achievements: in September, ‘BOHÈME’ will be released, solidifying Kety Fusco as a revolutionary figure in the global music scene.
