"'Vitamin C' is my favorite song from one of my favorite bands. I also wanted to record something that wasn't so centralized around the vocals but more about the overall feel of the band. It was like 'let's record a song that I wish was my own.'" Nicole Atkins
On Mondo Amore, Nicole reveals her growth as a singer and songwriter with a sophisticated batch of new songs.
Be prepared for a darker, grittier album with a bluesy, psychedelic sound that still showcases the stunning range and richness of tone she's known for.
"This is the record I've been wanting to make since I was 12," says Nicole Atkins. "It has so many layers, it's able to do whatever it wants without defining itself as one thing."
