Gilbert isn’t from L.A. originally; the urban contemporary/neo-soul vocalist grew up in Detroit, where her mother was a jazz singer. Gilbert’s mom did a lot to encourage her interest in music, and when she was in high school, Gilbert performed Madonna’s “Crazy for You” in a talent show. After graduating from high school, Gilbert studied music and drama at Eastern Michigan University. But she ended up dropping out after two years so that she could move to L.A. with a friend and be closer to the music industry.

Nicci is currently pursuing a solo career, writing and producing and was recently featured on R&B Divas. She recorded her first solo record Grown Up Folks. The ensemble that came together for this project is known as the Soul Kittens and has performed as a cabaret style group for a number of years.
