Nina has a great voice and is a pleasure to deal with. Her experience as a Jazz singer gives her the ability to come up with great harmonies, i recommend working with her 100%

I've had a project unfinished for over a year where I needed authentic background vocals for a single song. It's a part I haven't been able to fill, even with contacts and plenty of access to Nashville, L.A & NYC talent. I just couldn't find anyone that fit.. Until Nina. She didn't just sing background vocals, she created a background vocal arrangement that made the song soar. 10/10.. On time, clear communication and pleasant to deal with. 100% has my endorsement!

My 2nd review as I HAD to get Nina to do more to the song that we worked on. She is a fantastic & mature talent. She knows exactly how to deliver harmonies. Definitely one of the top artists to utilize for your reggae productions!

Nina has a wonderful voice and gave me more than what I expected!

What so say about Nina? she's just super professional, the communication was the best I had here on SoundBetter, she is very reactive and sended me before a demo of the harmonies before recording. She took my song seriously and that's really pleasant. That was really an honor, and if you want harmonies for a reggae song, and give that iconic sound that's the place to be.
thank you
