Nikita Karmen – “Burn The Books”

Born in Sydney, this Australian country singer and songwriter grew up surrounded by music thanks to her parents being in the 80s band Hotel Berlin. She chose not to go to college, but to focus on her music. Being invited to tour the US with Bobby Bones & The Raging Idiots led to her moving to Nashville. She played various venues and entered the Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival. Inspired by Keith Urban, Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood, she released her debut “Out Of The Park” in 2016.

Attempting to capture the lonely ache that heartbreak brings, her new single shows the raw emotional side of heartwrenching country-pop. Taken from her recently released album “Burn The Books”, she’s lyrically reminiscing about the relationship that ran its course. Easing us into her world with a mellow acoustic guitar and joined by a peppy beat and soft keys, creates a beauteous ballad. And with her stirring vocals tugging at your heart strings, this wistful tune takes your breath away.
