Nikki's finished recording!
Nikki & Writer/Guitarist James Bryan @ Kensaltown Studios in London, England. | |
Recording is going AWESOME!! I cannnnnot wait for you guys to hear this. Total other side of me, u just wait :P
I know I had a good week when I don't want it to be the weekend so we could continue working on THIS AWESOMENESS!!! Think I'm excited?
If tweets are any indication, Nikki Yanofsky is clearly excited for her fans to hear some brand-spanking-new music!
As of November 2011, Nikki finished tracking vocals to the songs on her eagerly anticipated 2nd Album for Decca/UMG, to be released in Spring 2012.
Produced by Martin Terefe (I'm Yours, Hey Soul Sister), the follow-up to her certified GOLD debut is influenced by the U.K pop sound of artists like Lily Allen & Adele with the American flavour of Jazz & Motown.
As you know, Nikki spent the better part of 2011 co-writing with industry veterans such as Eg White, James Bryan, Natasha Bedingfield & Martin Terefe. The album also features a special song written for Nikki by the one and only Diane Warren.
The songs on the album find Nikki maturing as a songwriter, but focus on a sound with lyrical themes that are representative of her personality and experiences over the last few years.
Keep your eye out here for more updates on the new music!
