Bio

Nicois represents a chosen generation of expression, creativity, and poise. The D.C. area-based songwriter is breaking out of the box, blending gospel, Christian rock and urban sounds. Her passion lies in creating universal, powerful, and effective music for the Christian believer that stretches across genres, and races. Born in Arlington VA, Nicois’ desire to reach the masses through the ministry of melodies was planted at an early age at Macedonia Baptist Church. As a devote member of her church and school choirs, Nicois developed a passion for music and a powerful voice. After losing her father at an early age, Nicois immersed herself into writing and singing. As a young adult Nicois swayed towards the secular industry singing for local bands in the Washington, DC area and worked with local producers for various projects, but it was singing for a well known gospel choir (Images of Unity) that kept her heart. It was under the training of Kenny Taylor that Nicois found her voice. After singing for a funeral of a very close friend, Nicois was asked to be the lead singer of a well known gospel band called Krazy Praise. This vehicle allowed her to travel throughout the DC area, displaying her ministry to the glory of God. It was during this season of her life that she completed her first independent project, several radio jingles, music for an independent movie soundtrack, and a Christian TV jingle for a well known cable show. After expressing to her First Lady that she desired a deeper relationship with the Lord and that she wanted to be not just a singer but a ministry, Nicois put everything down and fully immersed herself into her local ministry and family. With the Holy Spirit as her teacher and guide, Nicois received the revelation of the true meaning, value, and respect for Praise and Worship.

Married and a mother of 3, Nicois has learned to balance the demands of music, ministry, and family life. As a worship leader and choir director, at Agape Embassy Ministries in Alexandria, VA, Nicois, currently serves her Pastor and First Lady in leadership and has graduated from the Leadership & Bible Institute (LBI) in biblical studies. Nicois’ parents, Jeremiah and Shelia Carter, are Pastor and First Lady of Bethel Tabernacle UHCA Church in Buffalo, NY.

Currently working on her second project which will highlight her as producer, composer and arranger, her music has influxes traditional, neo soul, and contemporary pop gospel with the word of God as its foundation. In her words, "Music should not just be encouraging and uplifting, but based on the Word of God to have the power to change lives." Nicois’ ministry (NicoisMusic), is a ministry based strictly on the word of God with the purposes of encouraging the nations to engage in conversations with God about their purpose, prosperity, and destiny. It is the word of God that manifests change, deliverance, healing and salvation. Our mission is to create music based on Gods word that will bring forth the vision. Nicois has been blessed to minister internationally in Africa (October 2011) and has been requested to come to other countries in 2012 and has shared stages that featured; Iyanna Crawley, Vickie Winans, Karen Clark-Sheard, Shirley Ceaser, Tye Tribbet, Brandon Camphor and One Way, Darryl Coley, Maurette Brown-Clark, Martha Munizzi, Lisa Bellamy, Phillip Carter and SOV, Iyona Blake, Gideon Band, Ten Commandments Band and many others.
