Nikki Yanofsky

Nikki Yanofsky was born in Montreal (February 8, 1994) with an extraordinary gift… a magical voice. Singing since she could speak, she began her career by performing in front of small audiences in Stowe, Vermont. As her passion for music grew, so did her voice. By age eleven, she was ready for the next step… and the timing was impeccable. She performed two songs at the annual Maimonides Battle of the Bands fundraiser at Club Soda with her father’s band, the Past Their Prime-Time Players. Nikki captivated the spectators with her powerful voice and velvety tone.
