Licia Missori (born February 23 1986, Rome, Italy) is an Italian pianist, keyboardist, composer, songwriter and music producer. Her work spans a diverse array of genres, ranging from classical music to rock and dark wave, as well as symphonic metal, Celtic fusion and video game music [1][2].
Trained a classical pianist from the age of five [1], Missori has worked and toured worldwide with several acts in the rock scene, including Haggard, Belladonna, Spiral69, and Steve Hewitt from Placebo [3][4]. Also, she has toured alongside film actor Giancarlo Giannini in Italian theaters [2].
Missori has collaborated with advergame company Gamindo since 2019, composing and producing video game music for several brands, including Google, Discovery Plus, Barilla, Lavazza and Chiara Ferragni [3]. In 2024, Missori released the book Musica per videogiochi, which was the first book to be published in Italy that was systematically dedicated to game music [5].
In 2010, Missori founded the alternative rock band The Dark Side of Venus, for which she is a songwriter, composer, pianist, and keyboardist [6]. The band won the Italian Opening Band Live Music Festival 2011, opening Paolo Benvegnù's concert in Trieste in the same year [7]. In 2012, The Dark Side of Venus released the single Dirty Paradise, which was produced by Novembre's guitarist Massimiliano Pagliuso [8]. In 2016, the band released the album Power to Victims [9], its cover featuring a black and white photograph of Missori's hands and forearms wrapped in chains, shot by Italian fashion photographer Alfredo Sabbatini [8][10][11]. In the following year, The Dark Side of Venus toured with Claudio Simonetti's Goblin, Sirenia, and The Birthday Massacre [12][13]. Missori is currently also a member of the Celtic fusion band Green Clouds as pianist, in the character of Erin [14][15].
Missori has released eight solo albums periodically since 2002. She performs as a soloist and with orchestras, including the Roman Xilon Orchestra [16] and Tin Pan Orchestra, for which Missori also works as an arranger [17].
