artist Angie Nussey

BIOGRAPHY

Uncompromising is a word that most effectively describes award-winning Singer / Songwriter, Angie Nussey. It's also a word a lot of artist's biographies use.

Which in itself seems to be a little counter-intuitive. It's kind of like being in a gang of non-conformist teenagers. If your action is in direct contrast to the word you're using to describe yourself... perhaps it's time to bust out Roget.

Semantics aside, does anyone really read bios anymore anyways? I mean, sure, some fans dig them, but in this age of the "interweb" fans are already deluged with info.

Music industry peeps, to me, don't seem that concerned with reviewing bios. They seem more inclined to wanting the "nuts and bolts" of the artist than the "potpourri".

Hey, if you need an aromatic lift, by all means google me. But if you're short on time and have already lit your aromatherapy candle - here's my career snapshot:
