NICOLE WINS "FEMALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR" 2009 5TH ANNUAL LOS ANGELES SOUTH BAY MUSIC AWARDS!
Coming to national attention in 2008 on the Blues, Roots, Soul & R&B scene, Nicole Hart made an impressive beginning completing three highly successful tours: she was the featured female performer of Jacksonville Beach, Florida's “Springing the Blues”; the featured female headline act of Laconia, New Hampshire's Big Three Motorcycle Week; she performed many more prominent festivals, including the Jersey Shore Red Bank Jazz & Blues Fest, among other renowned venues on the national circuit. Her initial independent CD release, “NICOLE HART & THE NRG BAND, LIVE!” received airplay on radio stations worldwide & continues to receive airplay to this day.
During a recording session for 2008 Blues Foundation Nominee Albert Castiglia, she met up with Blues Leaf Records label president Joseph Morabia, who soon signed her to the label. Her 2009 Blues Leaf release, "TREASURE," debuted on the Living Blues charts at 14, and is currently in rotation on XM/Sirius Satellite Radio and Cablevision's Music Choice. In May 2009, Nicole became an award-winning vocalist, being recognized as "Female Vocalist of the Year" by the 5th Annual Los Angeles South Bay Music Awards.
"TREASURE" features a duet with labelmate Castiglia, is produced by Grammy award winner Jack Kriesberg (Paquito D’Riviera, Elvin Jones), is mixed and mastered by Grammy award winning engineer Ben Elliott (Eric Clapton, Keith Richards), is distributed by Allegro and available nationwide at Barnes & Noble, Borders Bookstores, J&R Music World, Amazon.com, CD Universe, on this website and at every performance.
As a modern day Blues woman, Nicole straddles a diverse musical terrain defined by such icons as Koko Taylor, Susan Tedeschi, Janiva Magness, & Bonnie Raitt. Hart’s impressive resume also includes work in television, film & live performance outside the realm of Blues.
“As an artist, I am influenced by all great music, and inspired by many of the greatest artists of our time. I aspire to create a feeling & a depth of integrity representing those influences, while also conveying a viewpoint toward the world of my own."
Longtime collaborator, music director & keyboardist extraordinaire, Lance Ong, who produced her previous CD, shines as musical arranger for "TREASURE" & played baby grand & B-3 organ. His credits include a Grammy Award-winning record with Andre Crouch, a first round Emmy nomination for CBS Sports, and recordings with David Sanborn, The Pointer Sisters, Grand Funk Railroad, Michael Murphy, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Anne Murray, Johnny Halliday and Sylvie Vartan, Trini Lopez, Erykah Badu & many others. His masterful command of the keyboards is undisputed, and as arranger and collaborator for Nicole Hart’s Blues Leaf debut, "‘TREASURE”, his piano & organ work is at its finest yet. Hart and Ong were married on August 8th, 2008.

thanks my friend feel the love, like music flowing from my heart to yours pouring threw the mountains of our body's flowing into the ocean we all share find open hearts and minds to share. and to build friendships in unity for the good if mankind.
I have loved you a thousand ways, thousands of times In life after life, in age after age, forever My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs, That you take as a gift wear round your neck in your many ways In life after life in age after age, forever. Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, it's age old pain It's ancient tale of being apart or together. As I stare on and on into the past in the end you emerge Baithed in the creators light piercing the darkness of time. You become an image of what is remembered forever You and I have floated here on the stream as part each other At the heart of time, love of one for another. We have played along side millions of lovers Shared in the same shy sweetness of meeting the distressful tears of farewell Old love but in shapes that new and renew forever
Im glad i met you in this life,singing out peace phil
