Nadine Loren
About Nadine Loren from Auckland
Swiss-born Kiwi singer/songwriter, Nadine Loren attributes her unique style to her upbringing in both Germany and New Zealand. A true artist, Nadine combines musical genres, fusing various styles with an obvious European influence. Her highly anticipated debut album, 'Living in Wonderland' has been nominated for "Best Pop Album of the Year" by LA Music Awards (2009) and is scheduled to be launched in NZ in September 2009.
Nadine's songs combine folk, electronic, pop and rock music elements and feature English, French and Italian lyrics that utilize operatic influences to add a quirky theatricality to her melodies. Two of her songs, 'Wonderland' and 'Look Me in the Diamonds', were recently picked up for a European compilation entitled 'Bad Girls Don't Cry' also featuring Duffy, Ayo, and Amy Winehouse (distributed by Universal Music). Her music can also be heard across the US, at Equinox Gyms, as well as in Nordstrom and Macy's stores nationwide. Two of Nadine's songs were also remixed and included in the House Music compilation 'The Adventures of Poncho Warwick', and have been played in clubs of London, Paris, Hungary, Romania, California, Chicago and Vancouver!
As well as performing live with her band in New York, LA, and Vancouver, Nadine can also be heard singing the US National Anthem, God Bless America & America the Beautiful at various sporting engagements across the US, including the Professional Bull Riding, LA Dodgers & the New York Mets!
"Nadine Loren has a completely original voice, and it's not just her physical voice, which is really unusual – superb – it's that she has something to say, and she says it", said Ron Altbach, Pianist and Songwriter for King Harvest and The Beach Boys. "The inter weavings in her vocal styling and the fabric of the music she has written and put together are really new and stand out from the offerings available today. Nobody thinks the way she does, and certainly nobody sings the way she does."
