Damiano David

Damiano David is an Italian singer and songwriter best known as the lead vocalist of the rock band Maneskin, which became one of the most successful European rock acts of the 2020s. Born on January 8, 1999, in Rome, Italy, he grew up in the Monteverde neighborhood and developed a passion for music and performing at a young age. He co-founded Maneskin in 2016 while still a teenager, bringing together guitarist Thomas Raggi, bassist Victoria De Angelis, and drummer Ethan Torchio.

Maneskin first gained national attention in Italy as contestants on the eleventh season of X Factor Italy in 2017, where they finished as runners-up. Their raw energy and authentic rock sound set them apart in a pop-dominated landscape. The band built a devoted following in Italy with their debut album “Il ballo della vita” (2018) before achieving global stardom by winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2021 with their song “Zitti e buoni.” The Eurovision victory opened doors to international success, with their catalog gaining billions of streams worldwide.

Following Eurovision, Maneskin became global rock stars, performing at major festivals, appearing on Saturday Night Live, and opening for the Rolling Stones. Their subsequent albums, including “Rush!” (2023), featured international hits like “Supermodel” and “The Loneliest.” In 2024, Damiano began pursuing a solo career alongside his work with Maneskin, releasing solo material that showcased his versatility as an artist. His charismatic stage presence and fashion-forward style have also made him a prominent figure in the fashion world.

As of 2026, Damiano David’s net worth is estimated at $8 million. His wealth comes from his share of Maneskin’s substantial earnings through touring, album sales, and streaming, as well as his solo music ventures, fashion collaborations, modeling campaigns, and brand endorsements. As both a member of one of the world’s biggest rock bands and an emerging solo artist, his financial trajectory continues to climb.
