Nicole Witt’s artistry is indeed her heritage. Music is in her blood—a
natural destiny—right down the line.
Nicole’s grandfather was a fiddle player. Her grandmom played piano.
Her uncle played the banjo and her father was a square dancer on the famed
Ozark Jubilee TV show in Springfield, MO. Nicole’s grandparents worked
as a traveling family band. Her grandfather passed before she was born, but
it was his spirit that passed on the bow… and he handed it right to Nicole.
Right from the very beginning, Nicole Witt's musical ambitions coincided
with her personal and spiritual connection with her grandfather—whom she
had come to know only through his music and his memory. Nicole's father
had originally planned to display his father’s fiddle behind glass as a family
keepsake, but Nicole, then a third-grader, had a different vision. "I came
home from school one day and told my dad I just had to play it," says
Nicole. Play she did.
As a teenager, Nicole wrote and sang her own original compositions. Recognized for her extraordinary talents,
Nicole was a four-year All-State violinist and Missouri’s State representative to the National High School Orchestra
performing at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Nicole went on to earn her music degree from the
University of Missouri.
In the spring of 1998, Nicole became an official "dues-paying member" of the Nashville singer/songwriter
community. Combining her tenacity and talents--vocally, sonically, lyrically and musically (on the piano and
violin)--Nicole has earned her designation as a prominent song crafter among Nashville recording artists and
publishers.
Nicole has had songs published by EMI Music Publishing and Curb Publishing. She has had songs recorded by
Diamond Rio ("The Box") Rodney Atkins ("Angel's Hands") Clay Walker ("It Ain't Pretty But It's Beautiful") Terri Clark ("She Didn't Have Time") Lee Brice ("Airport Song") and George Strait ("Brothers of the Highway") which is on his current record "Troubadour".
" ‘When An Angel's Hands Are Tied’ is the very first song I wrote with Nicole. Right from the start, I realized
Nicole was committed to writing a country song. ‘…Angel’s Hands…’ is not flashy. It just hits you in the gut.
Nicole is all about creating something very different, but familiar and this song almost has a tortured elegance--
but it's real." — Rodney Atkins/Curb Records
An artist herself, Nicole has a strong passionate voice. She has been likened to Trisha Yearwood and Patty Loveless but also Sarah McLachlan and Sheryl Crow. She is a modern day storyteller who writes what she knows. Look for Nicole's upcoming release on Curb Records!
