Born and raised in Cleveland Ohio, Tracy Nicole credits her family for her diverse musical influences. “My brother was a R&B DJ and producer, my father played jazz standards on the piano, my sister is a gospel singer and my mother introduced me to classic musicals. I gravitated towards artists such as Bjork, Kate Bush, Joan Armatrading and The Police, but have always been intrigued by the endless possibilities of all genres of music”
With her appetite for the eclectic and family influence, Tracy Nicole headed off to the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music where she briefly studied Music Theater and Jazz Vocal performance before NYC was soon calling. While in NY she performed on Broadway in several shows such as The Lion King, Caroline or Change, Into The Woods, The Music Man, How to Succeed.., The Life and The Who's Tommy. “After I left the stage I would head downtown to sing with bands ranging from punk to R&B. I never wanted to be boxed into one scene.”
Performing on Broadway at night and in the East Village after hours, she took her experiences, picked up a guitar and began songwriting. “There was always something to write about living in NYC. Walking down the street is where I formed most of my ideas and I met some great collaborators including Tony Aliperti, Gary Haase, Wendell Hanes and Preacher boy who helped me shape them.”
Armed with a collection of songs, a desire for sunshine and adventure, Tracy Nicole relocated to Los Angeles. Since arriving in LA she recorded a solo EP, scored two short films by up and coming film director Kena Tangi Dorsey and has sung with artists such as Vanessa Williams, Heather Headley Jessica Simpson and B Side Players. Her song “Inside my world” was voted one of the top five in The Great American Songwriting Contest as well as an honorable mention in the Billboard Songwriting contest.

Hi Miss Tracy, it's Jamaïl from France. How are you, everything is ok about life, project, music..? Take care an' see you. Friendly & Respect, Jam Huon.
Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...
Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...
And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...
