SINGER - SONGWRITER
ABOUT HER - Jane Nicola Douglas is a UK Soul-Folk artist and songwriter whose work blends acoustic storytelling into songs that she performs largely solo in more recent years. Currently based in the UK, she has lived and performed widely across the UK, China, Singapore and Hong Kong, building a reputation for her intimate live sound and intense performance style. She has independently released five albums, including her 2018 soul-folk project Railtrack, engineered by Graeme Holdaway and recorded at Sky Production Studios in Hong Kong. Alongside her music, Jane Nicola was the producer and host of Jane Nicola Soundvibe podcast, established in 2022, where she interviewed creatives from around the world and explored the artistic process. She is also the co-creator and performer of the award-winning short film Living Out Rough, a collaborative project with filmmaker Remo Notarianni. The film, featuring her original song, was shot across China and went on to receive recognition at festivals including the Rome Video Awards, Prague Video Awards and Cineverse Festival. As a classically trained guitarist and contemporary singer, Jane Nicola embraced songwriting and composition as central pillars of her artistic identity. She holds a Popular Music Degree from Middlesex University, London, and a Master’s Degree in Music Therapy from Cambridge. With a strong commitment to community and creativity, she has been active in the fields of both music therapy and music education.
NEWS FOLKS - For these winter months, much of my time has been spent working towards a new short film with Luca and Remo based around Railtrack, as well as teaching music throughout Leicestershire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire. The year has flown by and I am grateful for all the creative opportunities that I have been given. I've worked with amazing people and many musicians who have been passionate to perfect their craft!

"Most of my songs have been recorded live in different studios around the world, as a result I have just re-released 5 albums and one single independently of a record label. I have spent a lot of time scribbling lyrics, jamming out chords into a tape recorder. Nobody actually taught me to songwrite but I was immersed around a lot of music, so it felt very natural to be creating my own songs."
