In this episode, I hang out with Nicki Ricci. Nicki is a multifaceted talent in the music industry. As a promoter, stage manager, merch manager, personal assistant, and DJ, Nicki embodies the essence of a true music business "hasher, dasher, slasher." She has collaborated with notable artists like Margo Price and Yellowcard.
Nicki's journey began with her knack for selecting songs that resonated with others, often imagining music for commercials and movie scenes. A pivotal encounter with Patrick Clifford at Retrofit Records in Florida led her to Nashville.
An insightful organizer and planner, Nicki expresses her creativity through event management. As she notes, “I didn’t play an instrument growing up, but I did play business tycoon.”
Influenced by artists like Amy Winehouse and Led Zeppelin, Nicki emphasizes the need for continual growth, reminding artists that fame doesn’t always equate to wealth. Ultimately, it’s about genuine expression and staying true to oneself. Enjoy!
