Maneskin takes a break: what happens to the band after the triumph at Eurovision?

The Maneskin group, which gained worldwide popularity after winning Eurovision 2021, announced an indefinite hiatus. This news was confirmed by the soloist of the band Damiano David, which caused a wave of rumors about the possible breakup of the group.

Solo careers of Maneskin members

Damiano David already hinted at the release of solo material, announcing its premiere on September 27. In addition, he removed mentions of the band from his social networks, which adds intrigue to the further development of events.

Victoria De Angelis, the band's bassist, is also actively developing her solo career. She signed a contract with noted. Records, a subsidiary of Sony Music Germany, which specializes in electronic music. Victoria has already released her first solo track and performs at clubs and festivals.

Thomas Raji, the band's guitarist, recently performed with the legendary Patti Smith, which shows how active he is outside of the band. As for Ethan Torquio, the drummer, he's keeping his plans under wraps for now, but fans are convinced he's also working on his own projects.

What's next for Maneskin?

So far, there has been no official statement about the final breakup, but the indefinite hiatus and solo projects of the members put the future of the band in question. As in the case of other well-known collectives, such a break often means the end of joint activities. It is not yet known whether the band members will remain under the Sony Music contract separately.

"An indefinite hiatus could be as much a chance for new beginnings as it could be the end of an era. Time will tell what role that plays in Maneskin's fate."
