Featured album

What happens when work ends, but life doesn’t get smaller?

Rewirement is a collection of songs about life after work: the freedom, the uncertainty, the stillness, and the relationships that give it meaning. It approaches retirement not as a conclusion, but as an open-ended period of adjustment and discovery.

Ritagli di Cuore

Songs Luca wrote in his late teens and recorded in his room on an old tape recorder—now rediscovered and reimagined with contemporary arrangements.

“The songs haven’t changed. The time around them has—and perhaps so has the person listening.”

The story

I stopped writing songs.
The songs didn’t disappear.

I began writing music in Milan when I was twelve or thirteen. I continued into my early twenties, until work and the pace of everyday life gradually took over.

But music never completely went away. Every so often, I would capture a melody, a riff, a phrase or an idea and save it for another time.

Retirement gave me that time. I returned to the songs I had left behind—and began writing new ones about memory, change and the unexpected freedom of starting again.

About

Luca Penati

Luca Penati was born and raised in Milan and moved to California more than twenty-five years ago. Today he lives in Montara, on the California coast, with his wife, Villy Wang, and spends part of the year in Bellano, on Lake Como.

After a long career in communications and marketing, he now spends his time writing and making music, with more room for family, friends and new experiences.

His music explores time, memory, identity and reinvention—in both English and Italian.
