Are Måneskin really heading for a reunion? Not so fast.

Did you miss them? Of course you did. Everyone does.
And that’s exactly why the word reunion keeps circling around Måneskin like a boomerang that refuses to land.

Yes, the idea is possible. No, it’s not imminent. And at the moment, the four people involved seem far more interested in figuring themselves out than rushing back onto a stage together.

Right now, Damiano David, Victoria De Angelis, Thomas Raggi and Ethan Torchio don’t look like a band on hiatus. They look like four people taking very different roads and seeing where those roads lead.

Damiano steps back. On purpose.

Damiano David has just wrapped up his solo world tour in Washington, DC, a tour built entirely around his debut album Funny Little Fears. No Måneskin hits. No nostalgia bait. Just his own songs, plus the odd cover.

When it ended, he didn’t announce “what’s next”. He announced rest.

On social media, he spoke openly about pride, exhaustion and the need to pause. Not reset. Not reinvent. Just stop for a moment. After months of living his solo project at full speed, Damiano made it clear he needs space before even thinking about the next step.

That alone tells you a lot.

The reunion rumours (and why they won’t die)

Earlier this year, whispers started doing the rounds about a possible 2026 return. They were fuelled by comments linked to Victoria De Angelis’ father, who manages the band’s business entity. Add to that the very real drop in revenue following a year without touring, and suddenly the internet had a storyline.

But here’s the thing: no dates have been announced. None.
And more importantly, the band themselves haven’t confirmed anything.

Thomas Raggi says the quiet part out loud

If anyone has helped cool expectations, it’s Thomas Raggi.

The guitarist has just released his own solo album Masquerade, produced by Tom Morello and featuring a who’s-who of rock royalty. He even sings on it himself, which already tells you this isn’t a side hobby.

Speaking to NME, Raggi described the current situation in simple terms: the band isn’t broken. It’s paused.

“One year off to try different things,” was how he put it. No drama. No crisis language. Just experimentation. And, crucially, the belief that when they eventually return to the studio, they’ll come back with more colours, not fewer.

That moment in Rome (and why it mattered)

The last time all four appeared together was last October, during one of Damiano’s solo shows in Rome. The other three walked on stage unannounced. Fans lost their minds. Social media did the rest.

The clip didn’t circulate by accident. It was clean, emotional, perfectly timed. A reminder. Not a promise.

That moment came just weeks after Damiano had spoken, on stage in London, about feeling trapped inside a version of success that no longer felt like his dream. He later clarified that this feeling had nothing to do with the band itself. Still, the honesty lingered.

And then, in New York, he went even further. He admitted that while Måneskin had been living a dream, it wasn’t the one he had imagined for himself anymore.

That kind of statement doesn’t scream “reunion planning”.
It sounds more like someone still processing.

So… are they coming back?

Eventually? Probably.
Soon? That’s another question.

Right now, Måneskin don’t look like a band itching to reunite. They look like a band doing something far more dangerous: giving themselves time.

And whether fans like it or not, that space might be exactly what makes their eventual return feel real, rather than rushed.

For now, the reunion exists in photos, in rumours, and in hope.
The music will come when it’s ready.
