Nicole Sophia on SoundBetter

Passionate, professional vocalist and songwriter signed to a label with years of experience singing, writing, and performing. I have significant studio/recording experience as well as professional experience working as a lyricist for major projects including pop, country, and musical theatre projects.

I am a spunky, professional vocalist and songwriter. I have been writing songs since I was in the 4th grade and singing since I could talk. My voice and songwriting have led me to be signed with a label and I just release my completely self-written debut EP. I have years of vocal training and a wealth of experience in the recording studio. I have a college degree in music and a strong background in music theory. Writing and performing is my passion. I have co-written in many genres including country, pop, rock, and EDM. I have worked as a dedicated lyricist for musical theatre productions, including writing an entire musical for the Trinity College department of Theatre and Dance. I love receiving songwriting prompts and collaborating to help peoples visions come to life. I am happy to share any of my work with you so you can get a sense of what I do.

Q: What's your typical work process?
A: For songwriting, I connect with the client to see what their goals are and what story they are trying to tell or feeling they are trying to convey. From there, if I am working as a lyricist, I start singing on top of the track and honing in on the lyrics. Once I have the first pass of lyrics, I go through and refine for both expressivity and clarity. As a vocalist, I listen to the parts, learn them solidly, and ask for any specific desires as far as intonation, inflection, or intention. I collaborate with the composer/producer until they are satisfied.
