Nordic Daughter is more than just a musical project it is an experience in variety, acceptance, love and accountability. The musical concepts behind the music build a sense of intimacy with the audience that can only be described as genuine and authentic. The vocal stylings of Melissa Lycan are unique yet classic and the songs she delivers are heart felt and blended.

The duet debuted in 2016 at the Oriental Theater. The first songs were produced in the KMG studio in Boulder, CO, and the band released the first EP “Forgotten” in 2017. A Sophmore Album "The Path"was right on its heels in Nov 2018 both produced by Ahrue Luster and featuring Mia Asano on Violin. In 2020 Nordic Daughter released three singles all around the challenges we face as we go on our heroes journey!
