Nicole Serrano: Coming Out After Years In Christian Music
Today I’m chatting with New York native, Nashville-based singer/songwriter & multi instrumentalist Nicole Serrano – whose rich, soulful voice captures you immediately, carving her own path between soul & alternative pop.
You have probably already heard her music on major networks including ABC, CBS, VH1, MTV, ESPN, & Netflix on shows like Grey’s Anatomy, The Good Doctor, Station 19, Younger, Selling Sunset, and more.
Steeped in a deep history of worship music – she grew up in a conservative household where her dad owned a Christian book store – she was raised Christian and has performed & written for major Christian acts. She’s now showing off a new side; evolving her sound & creative passion into a fuller frame of what’s always been there.
Today, she is debuting a new song called “Nice To Meet You.” And earlier today she came out as queer on Good Morning America in an interview with Robin Roberts.
In my interview with Nicole, she told me:
“’Nice To Meet You’ is my story of the past 3 years – and it’s the most vulnerable i’ve ever been in my writing. But I am beyond ready. This peeks into my recent journey, revealing parts of me I’ve newly embraced & the parts I’ve thought best to leave behind, ultimately realizing that it ALL has always belonged. It’s been me all along. I just can’t wait to share it with you. It’s so real and honest and tasty and FUN.”

In preparing for this interview, I’ve explored her music and talent and found her to be incredibly gifted – not only with a gorgeous, distinctive musical perspective, but an independent spirit to just get out and be who she is.
Take a listen to “Nice To Meet You” from out recording artist Nicole Serrano, followed by my chat with the very talented singer/songwriter. You can find more info about Nicole at her official website: www.nicoleserranomusic.com
