Real name: Niia Bertino

Effective period / Period of releases: 2007 - 2015

A prodigious musician with an Italian and jazz vocalist background, Niia has spent over 10 years charting the path towards contemporary urban elegance mixed with future jazz. After a guest vocal spot on Wyclef Jean's "Sweetest Girl" in 2007 and years of establishing herself amongst the NYC underground scene, 2014 saw the release of Generation Blue—a slinky, full-bodied collection of smooth pop toplined by the lovely single “Body.”

Niia's debut album I (released on Atlantic Records in 2017) is entrancing in its sparse, elegantly gliding beauty with lush, bassy sound, revealing smooth, fully realized songwriting and timeless aesthetics. She’s collaborated with Jazmine Sullivan, Gallant, Boogie and shared stages with the XX, Jorja Smith, and Charlotte Cardin.
