Nicola’s incredible pitching and ear for harmony were apparent from an early age. At 10, when she wrote her first song, she was able to incorporate this into her first-ever recording with family friend and record producer Rob Persaud. Nicola has continued to develop her intricate harmony lines over the years and this has become a recognisable trademark in her music, adding to her distinction amongst thousands.
At the age of 13, she joined a Pineapple dance group, which led to her performing on the Blue Peter Queens Silver Jubilee as backing dancer for Zoe Birkett from Pop Idol (2002). Nicola later joined a South London street dance group, XP being taught by some successful commercial dancers.
When Nicola was only 14, after being spotted at an open-mic night, she began recording with 2b3 Productions (who launched Beverley Knight amongst other impressive credentials). This led to a deal being presented by a major record company, but at such a young age her family thought it best for her to continue with her education.
Although disappointed, Nicola continued with her musical pursuit alongside achieving 10 GCSEs and 3 A’ levels. She also undertook an intense year of study at the London School of Musical Theatre, where she received further training in singing, dancing and acting and achieved a diploma.
In 2006, Nicola became backing singer for Lily Allen, giving her the experience of performing at venues such as Wembley Arena and London Astoria as well as numerous other UK and international venues. Invigorated by life on the road, Nicola is even more determined that her next tour will have her name headlining. Another experience that has spurred her desire to succeed was doing backing work for Leona Lewis. That same year she also released a charity single for Macmillan Cancer research.
Nicola has been working with children since she was 17, teaching them singing, piano and music technology skills. She still works as a vocal coach and violin teacher, as well as giving song-writing workshops to different youth groups. Nicola feels that passing on her skills to the next generation is important and very fulfilling.
Pulling her experiences and links together, Nicola is working harder than ever to achieve her dream. She is now independently working with top UK producers to record her long-awaited debut album. With the right promotion and marketing, Nicola Sipprell is set to take the industry by storm. Watch this space!
