About the Artist
An urban girl with a southern heart and eastern roots, Nita is an American singer-songwriter and pop/rock artist who combines catchy melodies with the eastern ornaments of her upbringing. Without any formal vocal training, Nita combined raw vocal talent with her formal classical piano training and started songwriting in her late teens.
Her song, “Amazing Too”, was nominated as song of the year (2006) by Ken Salaets, the live music host at Borders in Germantown, MD. In July of 2009, she worked with producer Jeffery David (Rachel Lampa) in L.A. to complete three tracks off her debut album "Fall Again EP" which was released in February 2010.
Nita has also previously performed with psychedelic eastern rock band, Iritis, and with the nationally touring live Bollywood band, Kehkashaan, as a vocalist and keyboardist.
