what people are saying
this, is dirty jazz
"A new comer to the soul scene, Niki André is ready to take center stage. On her recent release…[S]he makes a powerful impression with her soft voice. Her lyrics are not watered down for consumption but refreshing and nurturing for the soul."
“...An intimate quality to her vocals that actually draws the listener close to her music. Couple that with refreshingly honest lyrics that make sense and tell the story well and you have a budding artist who definitely deserves to grow and flourish."
"Niki is a wonderful singer-songwriter with an engaging presence both live and on record. ..[H]er riveting live performance [Future Soul Showcase] in front of over 600 people was memorable as her unique sound and refreshing lyrics resonated with the audience and Toronto urban music lovers…With the right support, Niki has a very real shot at ‘blowing up’ on the national and international scale"
“She is definitely creating her own niche with her unique style - proving, lyrically and vocally, to be what the industry is lacking. Her lyrics are as skillful and heartfelt as any artist who’s been around for decades."
”Niki André's voice comes from her deep heart and is strongly influenced by her blood and brain, finding the right way to put together, perfectly, electric and acoustic, music and words, performing and listening."
"An amazing voice that produces not only a sound but a feeling that you'll want to experience again and again. Niki has managed to create a sound that is both new and innovative as well as much experienced at the same time.”
Niki has a terrific voice...had quite a few calls to the station & sent people to the website.
Seductive! Niki Andre's voice compliments the smooth, jazzy downtempo perrrfectly. Her tone is low, haunting but inviting, and easy like a Sunday morning... like Sade meets Nelly Furtado. Get this record
The new Soul of Niki André has caused sensation. A tremendous voice and a sensational production that we program almost weekly.
This cd is world class from start to finish. Get it, and play the hell out of it!!!
“Very beautiful voice, can handle the complicated things coming her way."
“This is so totally unfair…You see our station is primarily focused on the rockier end of the musical genre spectrum. But your voice and songs are so compelling that I'm finding a place for them as a slight contrast to our usual sound… "Lost" blew me away from the first verse. "May" is the type of song that grew on me from start to finish. Best wishes and good luck.”
