Black Viiolet

"BLACK VIIOLET is the new solo project of garage-rock maven Nicole Laurenne (The Darts (US), The Love Me Nots). Departing from her gritty rock world, Nicole - a classically-trained pianist who has also dabbled professionally in jazz - now ventures into uncharted territory: smoky, breathy vocals cooing over a mesmerizing blend of neo-soul, jazz, hip hop beats, spy-movie scores, vintage torch songs, and lounge. The meticulous production showcases Nicole’s prolific versatility as an artist, songwriter and producer, with attention to every detail in the arrangements and beats, top-tier musicians from two continents contributing real horns, upright bass, and drums, and six different music producers working together across an ocean. The result? An undeniably cool, seductive, cinematic allure that sparkles with innovative pop vision, musical acumen, and a wide, cross-genre appeal."
