Beans (also spelled as I Beans) are an Italian pop music group, mainly successful in the seventies.

Career

The group formed in 1969 in Catania, Sicily. Under the production of singer-songwriter Gianni Bella, they got a large success with their cover of the 1918 Armando Gill's classic "Come Pioveva", which peaked at the fourth place on the Italian hit parade.

Following a number of minor hits, in 1978 the group entered the main competition at the Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Soli". The song named a RAI variety show, hosted by Patrizia Lazzari and Laura Trotter and with the participation of the same group.
