He was also one of the two members of Rouquine, a prolific duo who even released an album in 2022.
Collaboration on Olivia Ruiz’s latest album
The artist also contributed to Olivia Ruiz’s latest album, who confided in Midi Libre in November about its creation: “It happened very simply. My manager told me to go and lock myself away in the studio for a few days with Nino Vella and Vincha, the composer and producer of my brother Antoine’s albums. I told myself that it was too obvious, that they were my friends.”.
As for the circumstances of Nino Vella’s death, little information has been released at this stage. Le Parisien, which quotes a close friend of the artist, indicates that he “died in his sleep, at his home in Paris”.
