Her “Best Climate Change” music video got the attention of WaterBear Network, the “Netflix” for environmental videos, who have added her as a composer for potential future projects.
Originally from Virginia, Lori is a natural and developed an ear for quickly recognizing melodies at a very young age (4-5). She combined an innate ability to hone in on melodies with teaching herself piano at age 9, to be able to play completely by ear. She began composing around age 12. She was formally trained in trumpet at age 12 and performed jazz, concert, and pop/rock music through high school (Alleghany) and college (Radford), playing in concert, jazz, pep, and symphonic bands, and even played in a backup horn section for a local rock band. Throughout high school and college, she was hired frequently to play piano because she could play the latest hits, not needing sheet music, and did her own arrangements. She also played piano at churches, pageants, weddings, and other local events. Lori also plays guitar.
As Lori started to record her music professionally, she realized her true passion is composing music, songwriting, engaging with and
showcasing other top talent, and recording.
Lori’s music has been compared to pop icon “Hit Man” David Foster, for her strong melodies, lyrical piano, and smooth instrumentation, but modern - for the 21st century. Like Foster, Lori creates and produces fantastic songs, performs piano/keyboards, and brings in other top performers that she hand picks. She worked directly with Foster’s sax player for movie soundtracks and pop hits, David Boruff, who was a featured soloists on several of her earlier tracks, among them “Our Secret” and “When You Are Here”. Lori’s music crosses several genres, ages, and demographics, appealing to audiences in Smooth jazz, pop, contemporary piano instrumental, and film soundtrack.
ABOUT LATEST SINGLE: For Lori’s newest radio single “Reach Into My Heart” (2024), her PREMIERE vocals single, she features powerhouse vocalists / Billboard artists, SELINA ALBRIGHT and ABE LAMARCA, with acclaimed saxophonist ERIC KNIGHT. “I could actually hear (in my head) both Selina and Abe singing on the track before they ever recorded it. I knew their voices would go together beautifully and they would make the song what it is”, Lori recalls. “There were even a couple of phrases that Abe LaMarca sang EXACTLY as I had heard it in my head. It’s an amazing ability to be able to ‘hear’ something before it has been spoken, sung, or played. That ability helped me immensely on this project”.
Lori's national / international radio release of “Reach into My Heart” is being promoted via the Smooth Jazz radio format, including Smooth Jazz Network, and Smoothjazz.com.
Lori's music videos, available on her YouTube Channel "Lori Nicely Official", are "mini movies" about modern life, relationships, and love, supported by her uniquely smooth and moving soundtracks. Her music and videos "tell a story without words" and cross several genres, ages, and demographics, appealing to audiences in pop, Smooth Jazz, contemporary piano instrumental, and film soundtrack. Lori aims to have a broad reach with her music: "No matter who you are, where you are from, there is something for you to enjoy. There is something to capture your emotions, something you can relate to".
Lori continues to create strong melodies and looks to engage top performers in Smooth Jazz and pop.
