American singer-songwriter born in 1978 in Neptune City, New Jersey. Known for pop-noir, chamber-pop and soul-influenced songwriting; albums include Neptune City, Mondo Amore, Goodnight Rhonda Lee and Slow Phaser.

Goodnight Rhonda Lee includes guest contributions mentioned in reviews (Chris Isaak, the Dap-Kings). Slow Phaser was recorded after an invitation from producer Tore Johansson in Sweden (mentioned in reviews).

Three DeBaser reviews present Nicole Atkins as a pop-noir, chamber-pop and soul-tinged singer-songwriter rooted in Neptune City. Neptune City evokes hometown memories; Goodnight Rhonda Lee narrates a personal recovery arc; Slow Phaser is read as a stylistic rebirth. Overall the reviews praise her voice, arrangements and songwriting.

For:Listeners of chamber pop, pop-noir and soulful singer-songwriter music; fans of vocal-driven retro-influenced pop.

 A beautiful, soothing voice that has the merit of not wanting to dazzle or overdo it in this world where everyone wants to dazzle too much.

 Nicole Atkins defines herself as a pop-noir songwriter, and listening to the album, this seems a fair – albeit simplistic – definition.

 “They say I’d be better off alone / I’m trying / Please, if you see me crying / Forgive me, I’m slightly crazy”.
