Morenike Vincent is an Italo-Nigerian musician, singer and songwriter, born in Ireland 24 years ago, but raised in Rome. Classically trained in piano for ten years and in cello, Morenike later studied jazz vocals at the conservatory.

Unable to find the musical space she was looking for in Italy, she decided to move to Paris, where she is developing her musical project in collaboration with Marc Collin. Her artistic journey is rooted in a deep sense of cultural hybridity and existential displacement, and unfolds as a continuous search for identity, desire, isolation and belonging.

Not finding a single genre to anchor herself in, she began weaving together the elements she felt most drawn to: oriental and African percussion, the raw textures of grunge, the haunting depth of trip-hop, and the spiritual resonance of religious and folk chants.

Her art is an attempt to hold together two opposing forces: the urge to never be caged by anything or anyone, and the deep desire to belong — to not feel lost entirely. Music becomes, for her, a fragile yet vital refuge where contradictions are allowed to coexist, and where identity is something fluid, intimate, and free.

Nobody Knows my Name will be her first EP.
