Nicole Atkins (born October 1, 1978) is an American singer-songwriter born in Neptune, NJ. She has released 4 studio albums, "Neptune City" (2007), "Mondo Amore" (2011), "Slow Phaser" (2014), and "Goodnight Rhonda Lee" (2017). Nicole Atkins' music is a blend of the decades and an expression of the images that many of us share in our memories. Both playful and tragic and never cynical. Nicole draws upon the documents left us by heroes such as Roy Orbison, Phil Spector, Nina Simone, The Kinks, David Lynch, as much as her own experiences learning from the new heroes like Stephen Malkmus, Wilco, Lucinda Williams.
