Episode #19 - Getting to Know Oregon Born Singer/Songwriter Nyah Grace

Join our conversation with Nyah Grace.   Nyah grew up on her grandparents’ farm in rural Oregon, with hazelnut trees, two cows, three chickens, two cats, a bunch of dogs, three horses and wide-open spaces. As a child, she wanted to be Selena Gomez or Taylor Swift, but discovering Billie Holiday and Alicia Keys in her early teens set her down a different path. That passion for music saw her developing her talents in the basement of the farm, teaching herself piano to be able to write songs and then Logic to transform those ideas into demos. Her momentum soon snowballed. She was discovered by a manager, who whisked her across the Atlantic to work with Michael Kwesi Graves in Brixton and then Steve Chrisanthou in Hebden Bridge, Yorkshire. For months she went back-and-forth between the two locations and relocated to the UK permanently when she was just 17 years old. The result is her debut album ‘Honey Coloured’. It’s a scintillating blend of neo-soul, R&B and jazz in which Nyah performs with both youthful exuberance and a maturity beyond her tender age. As well as these two new singles, the album also highlights ‘My Sista Told Me’, a duet and co-write with Corinne Bailey Rae.   Check out Nyah Grace's latest releases: Sooner or Later - https://open.spotify.com/track/0OGgT8...
