Vincenzo Arrivo

okaynevada is the project of Vincenzo Arrivo, singer-songwriter born in 2000, originally from the province of Naples. Some important things: the songs, the sea and the confusion. And in this confusion he wants to have his say. okaynevada was born in the spring of 2022, when Vincenzo met Andrea Mennella, with whom he began writing songs. In 2023 they released the first single "Ben Stiller" together, produced by Nicco Verrienti. On January 12, 2024, "Je e te" arrives, followed by "Triste come me" in September 2025. Together they performed at "Allegro ma non troppo", Luca Barbareschi's program broadcast on Rai 3, and at the Palapartenope in Naples for OktoberDays. On 13 September 2026 they received the "Antonio Pacilio" Critics' Award at the Torre d'Autore Award for the song "Estate (Tu Sei)". Today okaynevada goes on with Vincenzo: Andrea has taken a step aside for personal needs, but he always remains close to the project, especially on the authorial side and on live performances as a guitarist. A memory: in fifth grade Vincenzo wrote a nursery rhyme set to music for his classmate Giuditta. It's very ugly. But at least he understands one thing: writing is what he wants to do. Special notes: • He loves the history of Italian discography; • The question he asks others most often is "In what sense?" • The answer he receives most often to this question is "In what sense 'in what sense'?"
