We had the good fortune of connecting with Nicole Devine and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nicole, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I have always been an artistic person. I started singing when I was four years old and it has remained one of my biggest passions. I am so blessed to be able to sing every weekend. My other passion is songwriting. I especially love to write lyrics. I also enjoy other forms of creative expression such as painting.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I’m really enjoying 2024 so far. I plan to write a lot more original music. I think I have the ability to do lots of different genres of music well so I am looking forward to showing that off in my next album. I am also looking forward to more collaborations in the future because I know that most of the great songs out there are not written by one person. I feel I got to where I am today by never giving up. I always go out there and do the best I can. I’ve learned how healing music can be for myself as well as others. I let that guide me. I want the world to know that I am thankful for everyone that listens to my music and hires me to perform. It means the world to me.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Oh gosh there are way too many places to name! Any of the venues that I play at would be a great start. I have been very fortunate to work with wonderful owners, staff and customers over the last five years.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I’d like to give a shout out to my friends in the Fox River Trail Runners for all of their great friendship, support, helping to keep me in shape over the years and for allowing me to sing The National Anthem for our club’s races. I absolutely love singing and running so it’s amazing for me to be able to combine two of my hobbies that way!
