Artist / Band / Musician
Genre:
Folk / Alternative / Ambient
Her "feverish eclecticism" and "engaging performances" are "likely to hijack the attention of anyone within earshot."
Described as "bold, passionate and poetic," Nicole Torres is turning heads across the country both solo and with her band, The Affiliates. "This is sophisticated music, classically structured and yet containing various elements, rhythms and genres."
Over the course of her seven independently released records she has incorporated flavors of jazz, reggae, pop, alternative and spoken word.
Acoustic guitar drives the groove-centered, genre-bending songs with "simple rhythms played to clever effect." Electric drums and bass lay solid foundation for primal textures from flautist Chris Lawhead. Torres' voice, "at once velvet and disarming," demonstrates a "range and musical savvy that most American Idol contestants would die for."
"She seems to grow to fill the stage she's on, possessing a stage presence well beyond her years." See Nicole Torres & The Affiliates today.
