Niki Colet
Apr 11, 2018

Over a spotty Skype call and a 12-hour time difference, I had the pleasure of speaking to Nikki Colet, a singer-songwriter based in Manila. We talked about her journey from attending classical voice lessons to writing and performing her own songs, and the thriving music scene in Manila. Her new single “You Still Show Up in My Dreams” is out on Spotify and Soundcloud now!
