Biography
It was the experience of a year-long stay in China that brought Welsh born Singer-Songwriter Nicola Williams into her own as an artist, inspiring her passion for singing and creativity in song writing, which further flourished on her return to the Western world and her move to Galway, Ireland, where she is now based.
Nicola released her debut album 'Beautiful Arrangement' independently in 2006. The album covers a dynamic mix of styles, its varied tracks drawing upon elements of acoustic modern-folk, pop, jazz and dance, with subtle synth sounds and programmed beats complimenting the instrumentation of some of the tracks.
Nicolas'
voice is uniquely expressive and soulful, delivering lyrics that cover
a spectrum of emotions and an array of experiences of human connection,
body and spirit. Williams herself describes the richly melodic album as "a celebration of beauty"
Her
live performance is equally engaging, with a creatively animated visual
effect brought through dance, her infectious energy and her total
immersion in the world of her songs. Williams is an artist with the
ability to captivate and inspire the listener and watcher just by being
herself and doing what she loves most and does best.
