“Nisha
Nandez is on a roll. A hybrid of rnb, pop, contemporary and alternative. Powerful pipes, amazing production value, smashing lyrical content and great instrumentation. It’s been a minute since this type of artist has been on top but with her creativity and marketability she is a ringer for success. Immense talent has earned her a spot on our #360WatchList.” - Vaughn Lowery, 360 Magazine (Jan 23, 2014)
BIOGRAPHY
My passion for singing comes naturally and is one I have had as long as I can remember. The radio and I were close friends during childhood but as time went on, my realities changed. Real life hit and I grew up… After multiple failed relationships, four children, homelessness, a brutal attack on my life, and several issues with my health, I knew something in my life had to change!
My time with the band ended and I became a commissioned officer and shortly thereafter, retired from the Army. At the start of my singing/songwriting career, I chose to combine the music I love; an eclectic hybrid of pop, rock, jazz and alternative that created an Indie Pop/ Rock feel. I’ve had the honor of working with wonderfully talented producers in the past year: Jason Richard in Austin, TX, George Seals in Nashville, TN, Eddie Galan in Burbank, CA! I’ve also had vocal training with Lis Lewis in Los Angeles, CA!
I thought about how I could give back to the world and when 9/11 happened, I knew… I would pursue my passion for music and give back to the world by enlisting in the Army Band! Six months after training was completed, I deployed to Baghdad, Iraq! It was in Iraq that became the lead female vocalist in the rock band.
My new music is more defined in the Pop/R&B genre yet remains soulful and sincere. I’m grateful to my family, friends, and fans for all their support as I continue to share the emotions of life with the world through my music! I don’t see the point in wasting the best years of my life doing something I don’t love. ~NN~

“In Nisha’s recordings you can hear her passion. She has a knack for melodies that hit often enough for you to want to continue to listen. You’ll find a mix of pop, jazz and alternative. Rock is sprinkled in there too but not so much that it’d warrant a huge nod in that direction. What I mean is that you can hear the electric guitar but whent he vocals come on it’s soft spoken in most cases. Nisha also has a bio story on her website that tugs at the heart strings. Going through divorce at a young age, being a single mom and even barely surviving attempted murder she certainly has a variety of life to sort through. With this repertoire of experience it’s no wonder she resonates well with many people. In the end this is definitely music you’d find on a hit station so long as she keeps hitting her sweet spots. Nisha has a unique sound but if she were to be compared to other artists she kind of sounds like Sade*.On a scale of 1 to 11 on the Volume Knob, I would rank her music at 7.5” - Brenda Atencio, Hip Rock Magazine (Oct 11, 2013)
PRESS “Nisha wowed the troops not only through her singing but her unique style being an African American female rocker. Nisha was breaking the stereotypes of the music industry and caught on fire helping boost the troops’ morale while serving her country contributing her spirit. Nine years later, Captain Nisha is retiring from the army and sets her sights on singing to America with her spirit and rock and roll in her heart.” - BEE, B>U Be Greater than You (Jun 10, 2012)
