Ninni – Just The Touch Of My Hands (2022)

Inspired by human nature and the essence of being human, multi-instrumentalist Ninni brings us a melodic sound to capture these concepts. Featured on various blogs from Portugal’s Roadie Music to the USA’s News Channel Nebraska, it is safe to say that Ninni is reaching a global audience. Yet, while his skills are pronounced, it is only recently that he has embraced a passion for writing songs. With deep pride and passion, we bring you the debut songwriting single from Ninni, ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’.



Turning a new leaf, the veteran musician is trying his hand at songwriting along with instrumentation. With the help of passionate musicians, Ninni delicately composes an intriguing arrangement in ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’ – melodically and lyrically. Aiming to connect with audiences on a deeper level, ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’ shares Ninni’s natural storytelling through a personal narrative getting them “hooked” from the first second. Boldly exploring his new terrain, ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’ has sincerity, originality and intense intimacy showcasing Ninni’s depth as a songwriter.

While ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’ is Ninni’s songwriting debut, there is still much to be said about his multi-instrumentalism. Already an established musician collaborating on various compositions and touring the Italian Peninsula, Ninni highlights a sense of vulnerability in ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’. The Italian-English artist slathers elements of acoustic folk, indie-folk and soul in the single.

What I truly enjoy is how the simplistic soundscape shows you don’t need bells and whistles to captivate an audience. Ninni’s rich, warm vocal execution melds elegantly with the acoustic guitar, interspersed piano and toe-tapping backing vocals. As I mentioned, ‘Just The Touch Of My Hands’ adopts a simplistic, almost minimalistic sound; however, in its simplicity, there is a kaleidoscopic warmth hugging you through the mist. I cannot wait for more from this talented musician.
