Biography: Nicole Corris is an internationally acclaimed vocalist and musician based in Weehawken, NJ. What started as a quest to find more female written material while performing in a classic rock cover band turned into a deep dive into the songs and stories of women all across the musical landscape - from opera to jazz, musical theatre to contemporary pop. This material has formed the basis of Nicole’s solo shows over the last few years, including Rock Goddess, Songbirds, and Weaving Carole’s Tapestry: The Life and Music of Carole King. She has performed around the world in regional theatres, cruise ships, and concert halls, from Carnegie Hall to Uruguay’s Teatro Solís.
