There is no sea is the title of the first album by one of the most interesting young singer-songwriters with original and direct writing in the current Italian musical panorama… Nico Arezzo.
The career of Nico saw him debut while still a minor with Flighta song that allowed him to win the youth section of the Festival Show. Then he grazed the entrance to Sanremo Youth with Gorilla and that to X Factor.
From 2021 to 2024 he released six singles in which the writing reached “definitive” maturation. Now all these songs, together with other unreleased ones, give life to the album There is no seaout for Artist First from 17 May 2024.
13 songs, written and produced by Nico Arezzothe result of years of experimentation both on stage and in life.
In There is no sea we encounter everyday life experiences that give space to a deeper and more melancholic excursus, showing us how from a very small thing, for example a “Toothbrush”, we can let our imagination travel to discover a million other things inside.
Below is the tracklist and featuring on the album:
- Niche heads

- Toothbrush feat. Emma Nolde

Here's how the singer-songwriter talks about this project:
“If I were to disappear, I'm sure anyone would be able to get to know me through this album. There are no games behind it, no strategies, all the featuring and collaborators around the album are my friends. 'There is no sea' is distance and also a very stupid play on words.
It starts from Bologna and ends in Sicily. From drinking out with kids, to the girl who hates scales, to a relationship balanced on a toothbrush, to bad choices, to buying a house, to sex, to communicating, to not understanding each other, to tears, to cheekbones, to the sea , At home.“
The warm and funky sound of Nico Arezzo it not only contains the carefreeness of his years but also the silence and distance from the sea, his home, which he manages to rediscover at the end of his journey, in the place from which he started.
Maybe for this reason Nico he made a point of recording the tracks of these songs in Sicily, calling musicians and friends from all over Italy to his side, to make them converge in the place of his heart.
