Following the huge success of her ‘Stay Out’ EP, Nina Nesbitt has announced an October UK tour.
Its been a whirlwind year for Nina, the half Scottish, half Swedish 18 year old, she has been on tour with Ed Sheeran and Example and with a string of festival dates ahead this summer, she has now announced an October UK tour.
Nina was just 16 when she began performing intimate shows in Edinburgh and Manchester and, with a budding interest in film-making, posted a selection of her own songs and some fantastic cover songs on Youtube; the response she recieved was overwhelming. It kick started a rollercoaster year with her self-released EP ‘The Apple Tree’ going straight to #6 on the Itunes download chart and #1 on the singer/songwriter chart last April. She signed to Island Records and released her first single ‘Boy’ in October.
Nina, who was crowned ‘Singer/songwriter new artist of the year 2012’ on Itunes last year, is currently recording her debut album with Jake Gosling (has also worked with Paloma Faith, Ed Sheeran and One Direction), which is due out this summer.
