Nicole Starr
Nicole Starr comes from a musically inclined family. She says that she has been on the music stage since before she was born. Her parents were musicians when they first met each other, and her mom performed in her last live show when she was eight months pregnant with Nicole.
Nicole says that she has always loved music–the way it makes a day seem brighter and brings joy to the soul. When she was 12 years old, she started writing original music, using an old and incredibly out of tune piano. That start fueled her passion for sharing her musical talents. She hopes to one day share her singing and songwriting talents with the world on a professional level.
Being a 16-year-old Pop/EDM artist provides a unique platform for her to share the gospel with her fans. She says that she wants to be a good role model for girls her age for them to see that they can be part of the world but still hold true to their wholesome values when it comes to music choices and fashion. Nicole’s YouTube channel has over 4,600 subscribers. She has shared her testimony on a video that has garnered almost 50,000 views. She has said, “If I can spread the light of Christ to just one person and help them through their day whether it’s through my music or my testimony then I feel like I’ve accomplished something great.”
In May 2017, she had the amazing opportunity to sing on stage with one of her favorite bands, The Chainsmokers. The opportunity opened some doors for her, and since the experience, she has collaborated with a few producers from Spain, Canada, and New York City. The tracks from the collaborations will be released soon. Nicole’s story will also be featured on the new Chainsmokers documentary set which will be released later in 2017.
Nicole is currently working on a new EP, recording in her hometown of Springfield, Missouri, and in Nashville, Tennessee. Her goal is to have six original tracks recorded by the end of the year, and she is excited about those releases as well. Her original music can be found on Spotify, iTunes, and Google Play. Her latest single “Rip Off” was released May 22, 2017, and is available on iTunes.
