Corona, an Italian Eurodance project, was initially formed by Brazilian-Italian singer and model Olga Maria de Souza and producer Francesco “Checco” Bontempi. The group achieved significant commercial success with their debut single, “The Rhythm of the Night,” released in Italy in November 1993. This track, featuring the vocals of Jenny B, remained at number one on the Italian music chart for eight consecutive weeks. Its international release in 1994 and 1995 led to it becoming a number 2 hit in the United Kingdom and reaching number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. Their first studio album, also titled “The Rhythm of the Night,” was released in 1995 and featured subsequent successful singles such as “Baby Baby” and “Try Me Out.”
Following the success of their debut, Corona released their second album, “Walking on Music,” in 1998, with lead vocals for many of its tracks provided by Sandy Chambers. Francesco Bontempi later departed, and Francesco Conte and Paolo Dughero joined the project. The third album, “And Me U,” released in 2001 under the name “Corona X,” featured new vocalists Bernadette “Brandy” Jones and Bambi Jones. Notably, in 2005, Olga de Souza began performing lead vocals on their records for the first time, marking a turning point with the single “Back in Time,” which reached number 36 in the Italian charts. She co-authored “I’ll Be Your Lady” in 2006.
The project continued to evolve with the release of their fourth album, “Y Generation,” in 2010, which topped the Italian iTunes dance album chart. Singles from this album included “Angel,” “Saturday,” and “My Song.” Corona’s enduring career saw the release of “Super Model” in 2016, which charted at number 44 on the Italian Singles Chart. In recent years, the band remained active, participating in competitive events such as Una voce per San Marino 2024, the national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, placing 14th.
