Hi. My name is Nicole Hancock (professionally known as Lore Bangerz). I am a music composer, producer, foley artist and songwriter. I’ve been working professionally in the music industry since 2013 composing music and providing sound for independent films while producing my own music, mainly conceptual instrumental projects. I’ve recently added commercial music to my resume, and have landed major placements with Disney, ESPN, and VH1. Additionally, I work with up-coming Hip Hop and Pop artists. I am open to work with filmmakers, music supervisors and other music artists. I have an affinity for the horror, sci-fi/fantasy genres.
