Eva Wuornos
Eva Wuornos is my musical alter ego: real life, my voice, rage, and everything fucked up around us. After years onstage, I now use AI too—to create on my own terms, no filters, no permission needed.
I make music for the parts of us we were taught to hide.

The Interview
In conversation with Eva Wuornos
How did you start making music with AI?
I started writing lyrics and composing when I was 17. I spent almost 20 years in music before stepping away. But when I discovered tools like Suno, something clicked. Here was a way to get back into it, evolve, and try a different approach. I already had years of writing, ideas, and musical experience behind me. AI gave me a new way to put all of that to work. The process changed, but the urge to create was still there. Honestly, I don’t get hung up on what you use to make music. Does it sound good? Does it make you feel something? That’s what matters to me. I changed how I make it. I’m still doing my thing.
What does AI do in your creative process — and what stays human?
Honestly, AI feels like my best friend in the studio. We talk a lot, bounce ideas around, and swap roles constantly. Sometimes I come in with a clear vision. Sometimes a response sparks something I hadn’t thought of, and I follow it. It feels like we speak the same creative language. I couldn’t give it one fixed role. Writing, singing, questioning, experimenting—it all becomes one continuous conversation. What stays human is the life behind the music: my memories, my desire, my anger, my doubts. I bring the things I’ve lived through and the things I still can’t explain. I’m also the one who decides when a song feels true to what I wanted to say. That’s the moment I’m always chasing.
Tell us about "Dio Minore". How was it made?
“Dio Minore” explores disillusionment with someone deeply loved and idealized in childhood. It is dedicated to my cousin, whom I saw for years as a role model, almost a hero, but who, as I grew up, turned out to be everything I wanted to stay away from. The song is about the end of idealization, disappointment in family, and that painful but necessary moment when you stop looking up to someone and finally begin to see them for who they are.
“I make music for the parts of us we were taught to hide.”
Which tools do you use, and how?
My setup is my trusty MSI Katana, a podcast mic, and Suno. I write my own lyrics, then record myself singing them to capture the melodies, phrasing, and vocal character I have in mind. I feed those recordings into Suno to guide the track’s development. My singing gives it a starting point: how the words should flow, where the emotion sits, and the feel I’m going for. For me, singing an idea is the most direct way to explain it. The mic captures what’s in my head, and Suno helps me take it further.
What does it mean to be an Italian artist in the AI music scene?
If nobody knows who you are, it feels a lot like playing live: you’re still trying to get people to stop and listen. You write, you put yourself out there, and you build an audience from scratch. With AI, you get an extra helping of hate. And honestly? I kind of love that. Other people’s outrage makes me laugh, especially when they’ve already made up their minds before hearing the music. Being an Italian artist in this scene means finding my own voice while everyone argues about whether I’m allowed to use it this way. I’ll keep making music. The outrage is a bonus track.
What's next for you?
I’ve got several music projects in the works. Salem Rose is one of them, alongside three other English-language projects. My main project is Eva Wuornos, my AI singer who sings in Italian. Each project gives me room to explore a different side of my writing and musical taste. Beyond music, I’m building AFTERIMAGE, my creative label, where I’m developing horror series. I love creating stories you can watch as well as music you can listen to. For now, this is a hobby and a passion, so I’m taking my time. I’ve got plenty of ideas, and I’m enjoying bringing them to life at my own pace. No rush. I want to stay curious and have a good time making things.
What do you want people to feel when they hear your music?
I want them to feel it physically. That little shiver when something draws you in and unsettles you at the same time. I love leaving enough space for someone’s imagination to take over.
