Nicolette Street will of course be picking up her mic everyone this year and looks forward to seeing you at the events. Keep looking at the gig list to find out her movements.
Nicolette Street wrote and produced her first album while spending the majority of her time in New York a couple of years ago.
She worked with musicians who had been involved with Renaissance, Madonna, Roberta Flack and the like.
While in the US she gave the premier performance of the album in Foxwoods, Connetticutt. This is the US's largest Indian Reservation casino, which graced the likes of Taylor Dayne, Blondie and BB King while she performed there.
The performance had such success that the casino immediately requested Nicolette back and a 2nd performance was schedules just 2 weeks later to the original.
She moved her music career back the UK following this success choosing to focus on the UK market.
In October 05 Nicolette performed live with Anastacia at Wembley having won a vocal competition being held between Sony BMG and Capital FM. Check out the video below...
Since then she has worked with a number of individuals and had a number of successful singles.
Nicolette has just written music with a couple of very prominent funk DJs 'BENZO'. She is currently working on some new material with them and will be headlining their next club night 'REVIVE'.
A few months ago she completed work on backing vocals for Hazel O'Connor's new album, this being produced with Martin Rushent.
Martin is the genius producer behind the artists, to name a few, Human League, Altered Images, Stranglers, T'Pau, Hazel O'Connor, Shirley Bassey & she is currently working with him on his new album.
She was spotted by BUSFACE & asked to feature with them on their next single, (Busface's last single was released with Sophie Ellis Bextor, which hit number one in some European countries.)
She has also just worked with the producer Paul Boddy, who co-wrote & co-produced Mel C's new album's title track 'Beautiful Intentions'.
She recently finished recording an album with Klub Kidz for Klone Records, on release in all record stores and called "X-Cite". This album hit number 2 in the European Dance Charts.
This is one review recently found on a discussion forum "oh my god the samples are fantastic and the vocals in When You Tell Me That You Love Me and Because Of You, what a voice hope to hear loads more from Nicolette Street ."
There are also currently discussions taking place about her also doing work with Klub Kidz for the Sharp Boys.
