Artist History
Nina Storey released her first CD “Guilt and Honey” in 1993. This record reflected her talents as a singer/songwriter combining acoustic rock, folk and blues. Nina began touring extensively throughout Colorado eventually branching out to other parts of the country. By the winter of 1994, Nina had toured Europe twice. On her own independent label, Red Lady Records, she then released the live CD “Bootleg”. This second record showcased Nina’s overwhelming ability to perform live and reflected her maturing musical style incorporating blues, funk, alternative rock and jazz.
Nina then began to open for many nationally acclaimed artists such as Etta James, Earth Wind and Fire, Keb Mo’, The Allman Brothers, Los Lobos, Joan Osborne and John Lee Hooker.
In the beginning of 1997, Nina sang back-up vocals with INXS for VH-1. Nina then released the CD, “Shades” and since its release Nina has performed in major festivals around the country including Lilith Fair, Woodstock ‘99, Santa Cruz Blues Festival, Montreal International Jazz Festival, and The New Orleans Jazz Festival, where she was selected as one of the ten best acts of the festival.
Nina has also sung the National Anthem for sports teams across the country such as the Chicago Bulls, the Denver Broncos, including Monday Night Football and the AFC Championship game. She also performed for an audience of 250,000 during the Denver Bronco's Super Bowl Celebration.
In the winter of 1999 Nina toured with Jonny Lang where she was greatly received. She was then featured on CNN Showbiz Today, MTV Online and Rolling Stone Online. Two of Colorado’s largest publications, The Westword and 5280 Magazine also awarded Nina as the top vocalist in the state.
“Shades” was re-released nationally in February 2000 with distribution through Navarre and since has received extensive radio airplay throughout the country and rave reviews in magazines such as People, Billboard, Performing Songwriter, Music Connection and Totally Adult.
In addition, four tracks off of “Shades” can be heard in the films, “Broken Hearts Club” (Sony Pictures), and “Public/Private” (North Sea Films).
Nina’s new self-titled CD released in June 2001 under her own production company, Nina Storey Music. This new record is an entertaining and engaging pop journey that reflects her talents as a vocalist, writer, musician, and producer. Fifteen new songs combine soulful rock and pop sounds with poignant yet satirical lyrics that are acoustically mesmerizing.
Nina’s list of impressive venues grew this summer with a show at Colorado’s own Red Rocks Amphitheatre, voted the country’s number one outdoor venue.
She has just been selected to endorse Klipsch Audio’s international promotional campaign, where she will be appearing in many forms of print media, Internet promotions and special events. |
