Ally Nicholas is bound to make you a fan of rock and all that the genre has to offer. Born in Chicago, and turning to music for comfort during a difficult adolescence, songwriting quickly became the only way to make sense of the world happening around her. Characterized by a seasoned, innate darkness and drawing from subgenres like grunge, indie, shoegaze and metal, Ally soon found hope and direction in pursuing her artistry.
After dropping out of college she found a home at a Manhattan-based studio, Engine Room Audio where she began working on recording her music. Soon after she moved to Los Angeles, where she refined her sound with her core collaborator Diego Ferrera, pulling from the vibrant alternative scenes around her, her own influences, and her roots. With only a handful singles out, Ally has amassed over twenty million streams across platforms and has received recognition by publications like Kerrang!, Ones To Watch and Euphoria Mag. She has toured with the likes of Amira Elfeky, Jutes and Bilmuri, and has performed to sold out crowds in Los Angeles and New York City. Known for her standout vocals and soul-baring lyrics, Ally’s mission is simple – to make even the loneliest voices feel represented in her music, and to present her own evocative take on rock music to the world.
