about

NiCKY is a songwriter from London’s queer performance scene who pens heartfelt, unique songs that reflect love, identity and contemporary experience.

After releasing ‘by’ in 2024 - their poignant debut EP of piano-led torch songs - NiCKY returns with their new EP ‘with’, a collection of songs that sees the artist embellish their intimate solo artistry with rich, resplendent instrumentation and broader collaboration.

NiCKY describes ‘with’ as a display of “queer vulnerability”, as the outcome of “unmasking”, where the regalia of their persona as “the tragicomic love child of London’s queer scene and Zippos Circus” is stripped away. Revealing an uninhibited artist, ‘with’ is the sound of NiCKY in after hours mode, singing of private passions after the lights have dimmed.

As emotionally eloquent as ever yet newly elaborated and expanded, NiCKY’s music blossoms on ‘with’. Described as a “distinct departure” from the solitary songcraft of ‘by’, NiCKY defines ‘with’ as “a leap of faith, incorporating more layers, components and contributors”. Encompassing songs about “cruising, transformation, road trips, heartbreak and the feelings that arise in liminality”, ‘with’ is a candid, beautiful evolution in NiCKY’s output, featuring the likes of Cate Le Bon collaborator Euan Hinshelwood (production, saxophone, bass), alt-jazz luminary & Alabaster DePlume affiliate Donna Thompson (drums), countercultural icon Hermine Demoriane (vocals), CJ Calderwood of Good Sad Happy Bad (saxophone) and Leeds dance music prodigy Billy Jack (production).
