The album is being released on Friday 18th September on Isaak’s Sun Records imprint, Wicked Game Records.\n\nNicole grew up on the Jersey shore, in Neptune City, but now lives in Nashville, where the album was recorded. It continues her journey to “write modern songs that could be part of the Great American Songbook.”\n\nShe was fantastic company and we have a wide-ranging conversation. I hope you enjoy it.\n\nI also wanted to mention; my debut novel is out now! It’s entitled “The End We Took For Granted”. It’s a missing person mystery set in 1997, against a backdrop of local bands, record shops, and small-town journalism. I’m really proud of it. \n\nIt’s available on Amazon and there’s a link below. As a reminder the show is ad-free, and I have no sponsorship or crowd funding or anything, so if you want a tangible way to support me, please consider picking up a copy. In the UK the paperback in £7.99 and the Kindle version is only £1.99. \n\nThanks!\n\nhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0HCXBPMKT"}
