Nicky Schrire

Nicky Schrire is a multitalented and inventive British-South African vocalist and composer based in Toronto, Canada. Her work has seen her likened to vocalists Joni Mitchell, Norma Winstone, and Esperanza Spalding with The Boston Globe’s Jon Garelick noting that “though her approach has earned her comparisons to Gretchen Parlato and Becca Stevens, the similarities are superficial…she’s got her own thing, and it’s very much worth listening to.”

Nicky’s latest album, Nowhere Girl, released in June to wide acclaim. Her original music is exciting, thought-provoking, intelligent and captivating. She has drawn in fans both within and outside of jazz through the accessibility of her music. Joining her on Nowhere Girl is Myriad3, Tara Davidson, Laila Biali and Julio Sigauque.
