Noona

Nicole began songwriting in April 2004 under the direction of World Music icon Chrisse Feros. In June 2005 Nicole submitted lyrics for the first time into The Song of The Year competition and received a runner up award. In August 2005, she received first place in the 'lyrics only' category. Mainly influenced by other female singer/songwriters Nicole draws inspiration from the likes of Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Emiliana Torrini, Martha Wainwright, Norah Jones and a host of Australian artists such as Missy Higgins, Sarah Blasko and Katy Steele.

Nicole boldly writes about her outlook of the world and her lyrics make no apologies for saying it how it really is. They take a perspective of a harsh reality and mix with it a good dose of hope with melodies to match. Her diverse sound moves from angry rock to soft acoustic melodies to dark electronic keyboard and back again. A variety of sounds capture the mood and emotion of each individual song which is written from every day, personal and real life experiences.

Nicole's sweet but raw vocals and melodies are littered with true emotion.
