Tinturia are a Sicilian music band, founded in 1996 in Raffadali,Sicily in the Agrigento neighbourhood, and led by singer/melodicist Lello Analfino.
They are popular in Sicily since their debut album, Abusivi (di necessità), which featured many of their signature songs, such as Jovanotto, Occhi a pampina and La donna riccia, a rewrite in Sicilian language of an old Domenico Modugno song. Many of their music pieces are sung in Sicilian language as well.
Their music also featured in the Italian movie "Nati stanchi" by comedians Ficarra & Picone. Their most recent album, Nessuno è perfetto (per fortuna), came out in 2005 and showed a strong, rock-oriented, change from their earlier works, also featuring a larger usage of Italian language.
They released a live album entitled Io sto qui in 2007.
