Today marks an exciting milestone for fans of Neo-soul music as LA’s rising star Nicollette premieres her latest EP, “Veil of Tears,” on The Untitled Magazine. The much-anticipated release is set to captivate audiences with its soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics, showcasing Nicollette’s unique blend of musical influences and her powerful vocal prowess.
Nicollette’s journey into music was almost predestined, given her rich musical heritage. Her father, a lead singer in a hard rock band, and her mother, a backup singer for various bands, exposed her to a diverse array of genres from an early age. This eclectic mix of hard rock, metal, soul, R&B, classical, and funk has profoundly shaped her musical style. Additionally, her love for classic black-and-white films introduced her to legendary artists like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, and Nina Simone, who have significantly influenced her artistic development.
“Veil of Tears” is a testament to Nicollette’s growth as an artist. The EP, which drops today, is a collection of deeply personal tracks that explore themes of love, loss, and resilience. Each song is a reflection of her journey, both musically and personally, and is expected to resonate with listeners on a profound level.
Nicollette’s debut studio album, “Nicollette,” recorded at C4 Music Lab in Highland Park, California, featured collaborations with renowned studio musicians such as Lee Thornburg, Jimbo Ross, Ed Roth, Tony Mandracchia, and Doug Webb. This album laid the foundation for her burgeoning career, and “Veil of Tears” promises to build on that success with its rich, emotive soundscapes.
Fans can look forward to another EP from Nicollette later this summer or fall, as she continues to evolve and expand her musical repertoire. For now, “Veil of Tears” is available for streaming and purchase, offering a fresh and intimate look into the soul of one of Neo-soul’s most promising new voices.
