Nikki Yanofsky is a 17-year-old musical prodigy who debuted at the 2006 Montreal International Jazz Festival. There, she captivated and stole the hearts of more than 100,000 people who were in the audience as she sang in a voice reminiscent of her idol, Ella Fitzgerald.

As early as 14, Nikki was performing and recording with artists such as Herbie Hancock, Will.i.am and Wyclef Jean as well as Marvin Hamlisch, The New York Philharmonic and The National Symphony. In 2008, still all of 14 years old, this native Montrealer released her first album - Ella...Of Thee I Swing - a live CD/DVD released on Universal Canada. This album was certified GOLD in Canada and garnered two Juno Award nominations.

In February of 2010, Nikki sang to an estimated worldwide television crowd of 3 Billion as a featured performer at both opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, lending her “…Bright, pitch-perfect voice” (NBC News) to the Canadian National Anthem and on the CTV Network’s official Olympic anthem, I Believe. The digital single of this song had the highest first week sales of any Canadian artist in Soundscan history (certified QUADRUPLE-PLATINUM), making Nikki the youngest artist to ever achieve this sales level.

Later in 2010, Nikki had her first international releases on Decca Records - Nikki - a full length album of original collaborations and standards and Live in Montreal - a DVD based on the music from Nikki. Both releases have been certified GOLD in Canada and are on their way to that status in many countries around the world. Nikki is currently juggling time in Los Angeles, London & New York, working with top-tier producers and songwriters for her 2012 sophomore album.
