For those who don't know, it's officially FINAL PROJECT SEASON! It has been an honor to not only focus on my music, but to learn so many new skills. In just one year the SMV-School for Music Vocations at SWCC has changed the entirety of my skillset. I am so thankful to my teachers and peers, and I look forward to sharing more of my music with the world!

Also, for those who may be wondering, as I continue this journey as a new artist, I have grown and adapted and take joy in officially announcing my stage name! I am and forever will be Natalie Holsey, but now I am proud to say that I am also Natalie Nikaó.

My time in Iowa has been a whirlwind of different experiences, but something that I want to take with me is this name. Nikaó comes from the biblical term which stands for victorious, conqueror, overcomer, and so on (especially in battles or trials). I want to spread the message that through music and Jesus we as a collective can and will overcome our obstacles/challenges (John 1:5, "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it").

I'm making a name for myself as a Pennsylvania based jazz singer-songwriter. Stick around to learn more and stay tuned for more updates! :)
