My name is Nicola, and I'm a Billboard featured Independent touring Singer/Guitarist/Keyboardist, based in NYC, former Broadway actress/dancer, and am looking to collaborate with folks for photography, videography, hair and clothes stylists, makeup artists - as it relates to my live shows and album/video shoots, etc... I am also interested in working on other people's projects and can dance, do action and underwater shots, and am willing to be adventurous and try new cutting edge types of scenes and shots. I am capable of many different looks, am versatile, easy and fun to work with.

Below is my industry bio and quote from Billboard Magazine:

“…One listen turns Nicola into a vital iPod presence…Adroit new presence…unadulterated pop/rock mastery…”Billboard Magazine

Billboard Featured NYC Front-Woman, Songwriter, Vocalist, Guitarist, Dancer, Entertainer: Nicola can do it all. Over the past few years and 4 independently released CDs, having sold over 20,000 units independently, and charted on over 200 national radio stations, Nicola with her hybrid brand of sultry alt/pop/rock has racked up an impressive list of rock and pop credentials: she's been featured on ABC & NBC News, Oxygen’s “Bad Girls Club”, “Music Under New York,” MTV, VH1, “Women Who Rock” magazine, Songwriter Universe Magazine, National Songwriters Hall of Fame , and she's performed at Madison Square Garden and Yankee Stadium. Last year Nicola was featured and showcased in Billboard Magazine’s “Underground LP” section for Noteworthy Emerging Artists about to break.
Her show is a high-energy pop/folk/rock mix of driving beats, soulful melodies and intelligent lyrics all anchored by her sizzling vocals and rhythmic guitar chops.
