Nico Mangifesta, Nico Mangifesta, Italian musician from Abruzzo Region born in 1978, lives in Rome. He plays different instruments in various musical styles. Aesthetically, he can be situate between the contemporary musical experiences and the noise, between an old avant-garde approach and the DIY attitude.
