Eugenio Finardi (born on the 16th of July 1952) is an Italian rock musician, singer guitarist, and keyboardist.

Finardi was a part of an active culture during the heyday of Milan in the 1960s. In the blues traditional rock and roll, and the hippy counter-culture, Finardi was a part of an anti-left youth group during that time. In 1969, he founded his first rock group, The Tiger. The band soon began to play alongside Alberto Camerini, a singer and guitarist from Brazil and who years later would play a pivotal role in the introduction of American and British techno-pop and new wave in Italian rock music. They even re-created their inspiration from the US movie Easy Rider by travelling on motorbikes from Milan to Amsterdam. The Finardi-led scene of was comprised of bands such as Area as well as Stormy Six, Claudio Rocchi and female singer-songwriter Donatella Bardi. Finardi earned a living during the working during the day in English and the language he spoke fluently thanks to being raised by an American maternal grandmother, but also was an artist at night, as a singer guitar player, singer and guitarist. After forming the group Il Pacco with Camerini, Finardi recorded one single that was in English in 1973. Spacey Stacey/Hard Rock Honey for Numero Uno which was the initial Italian independently-owned record company created by musician-singer Lucio Battisti as well as his writing partner Mogol who had a number of Italian and international hit songs to their credit and introduced into Italian Pop music different styles that came from music from the US in addition to the UK as well as music of the Rock songs from Bob Dylan, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, to Blues and Soul. The single by Finardi was largely ignored.

Finardi’s sound and style became a success in 1976, with his second album Sugo, and his third Diesel in 1977. The first included the counter-cultural youth anthem Musica Ribelle, and the hymn to pirate radio-stations La Radio; the second the love ballad Non e’ Nel Cuore, which were all released as singles. Finardi, who had started performing live often on his own with an acoustic guitar and sitting down, was now touring with a four or five-piece Rock band. His introduction of Rock’n’Roll in the genre of socially and politically aware Italian singer-songwriters was what made Finardi stand out and endeared him to the counter-cultural youth of late 1970s Italy, which in 1976–78 was in the midst of political upheaval and almost civil war, with the occupations of factories, universities and high-schools, demonstrations which ended in pitched battles with the police – often with fatal casualties – and the rise of political movements like Autonomia, the Indiani Metropolitani and terrorist groups like the Red Brigades (Brigate Rosse). This eventful period of Italian contemporary history is known as the Anni di piombo (Years Of Lead) and also as the era of the Movimento ’77, the youth movement for which 1977 was a pivotal year, somewhat an Italian equivalent of the Punk Rock upheaval in the US and Great Britain. The dramatic and eventful climate of the period was the result of the so-called Strategy of tension (Strategia della tensione): the confrontation between youth counter-culture and left-wing activists against an Italian government perceived as reactionary, repressive, corrupt, unstable, manoeuvred by the US, which disseminated disinformation and engaged in false-flag terror attacks blamed on the left to establish a more authoritarian regime. Finardi was a notable counter-cultural and musical protagonist of these years, with songs like La C.I.A. about the American Secret Services’ involvement in Italian politics, Soldi about consumerism, Giai Phong, about the Vietnam War, Scuola about the education system, Tutto Subito about the confrontational street demos of Autonomia, and Scimmia which chronicled Finardi’s past heroin addiction and subsequent self-detoxification through ‘cold turkey’, a particularly relevant song for touching upon a subject that would become a growing social problem in Italy starting in the following decade, the 1980s. Songs like Voglio and Oggi Ho Imparato A Volare were optimistic hymns for the revolutionary youth of the Italian left, and Diesel celebrated both Finardi’s life on the road as a musician and the life of everyday working-class Italians. Finardi started to make his transition from this turbulent period of Italian history and its cultural landscape with the album Blitz and single Extraterrestre in 1978, and Roccando Rollando (Rocking and Rolling) in 1979, which contained Legalizzatela, his song- manifesto for the legalization of cannabis. Other significant hits were Patrizia, and the bitter-sweet ballad Le Ragazze Di Osaka in 1981.
