Biography
Fusing English with the Spanish language that she grew up around, having spent a period of her formative years in a small mountain town absorbing the country’s rich lexicon and culture, 21-year-old Nina Cobham’s broad-reaching, bilingual storytelling feels like the natural next step for UK alternative pop.
Pop - or her more intimate, nuanced version of it - is however something that’s only started to seep into the Manchester-based musician’s palette in recent years. Learning piano from a young age before teaching herself to play guitar aged 11 with the specific aim of translating her stories and ideas into songs, Nina spent her subsequent early teenagehood exploring a more traditional singer-songwriter route, influenced by the likes of Taylor Swift and Corinne Bailey Rae and encouraged by her sound engineer-turned-pastor father and a house that had always been filled with music.
