Ariana nichole
BIO
Ariana Nichole is a fierce performer, bringing unfiltered storytelling and energy to the stage. The nuance in her vocal timbre, reminiscent of Marina and the Diamonds, glues together her bass-heavy, synth-heavy, honest music influenced by Lady Gaga and UPSAHL.
Having written over five hundred songs, releasing twenty of them in the past four years, Ariana is a prolific songwriter. Her foundation in classical guitar and choral singing paved the way to becoming a self-sufficient artist, songwriter, and producer.
Performing regularly around the Bay Area has brought Ariana countless opportunities including learning production in an actual studio, featuring on two tracks with her mentors, Josh and Rob of Nbdy Nprtnt, and working with Steve Heithecker, Steffen Franz, and Eric Kuehnl at Pyramind in San Francisco to expand her production expertise.
What People Are Saying
“Ariana has always been a pleasure to work with. Not only is she efficient with her work, but she also puts so much emotion into her music.
We had the pleasure of working with her on her first EP and also featured her on one of our own singles. Through the process of the EP, she was always willing to learn and looking for opportunities to better herself as a musician. She not only focused on the songwriting, but also took it upon herself to learn the ins and outs of mixing and mastering.
Her lyrical abilities were also something to be recognized. She is not one to be shy of lyrics, especially ones that evoke tons of emotion for the listener. We always had fun in the studio with her and have really enjoyed seeing her grow as an artist.”
