No Place to Call EP Coming Spring 2016 

I’m so excited to share with you that my new EP, No Place to Call, will be available SO SOON! We’re getting everything finalized, but let’s say in the next few months, you can have it in your hands/ears, whatever. The EP was recorded at Catherine North Studios with the incredibly talented Dan Hosh (Whitehorse, Rose Cousins) and mastered by Elliott Brood’s Stephen Pitkin. I’ve got five new tracks to share with you. I can’t wait to get it your way!

Stay tuned here over the next few months as things get exciting! A new website is headed your way very, very soon!

Gillian Nicola’s 2016 EP “No Place to Call” will have its Toronto release on Saturday, April 16th at Toronto’s Cameron House. In late 2015, Nicola headed into Hamilton’s Catherine North Studios to work with producer Dan Hosh (Whitehorse, City & Colour, Rose Cousins) on her sophomore EP, No Place to Call (spring 2016). Mastered by Elliott Brood’s Stephen Pitkin, the five-song EP is a move to a sound that Nicola feels fully defines her as an artist.
“Across the five new offerings, Nicola delivers warm, familiar, folksy Canadiana — but her powerhouse vocals make for a listening experience that's entirely refreshing.” – Exclaim!
