Nina Began her vocal training with award-winning jazz singer Cheryl Hodge, who remains a mentor to this day. Her first gig on a big stage was as a finalist in the Miss BC Ambassador pageant. In 2013, Nina recorded her EP, Spell and Reflection, with producer Brandon Delyzer at Baker Studios in Victoria, BC. Dipping more into the blues/pop arena, Spell and Reflection featured Nina’s smooth vocals and an addictive laid back vibe. Nina’s single Tides debuted on radio in early 2014 on 101.9 K-Rock, live on The Blues Show hosted by John Kereiff. Tides continued to receive radio play and it began spreading to other stations across BC and Alberta until CBC Radio picked Up Only Human for a feature on North By North West. Nina Amelio spent the spring and summer of 2014 playing festivals and shows through BC, ending with a special performer slot of the 2014 Revelstoke Homecoming, a special event that only happens every 10 years and brings thousands into Revelstoke.
