Bum Rogers seaside Heights

Nikki is a phenomenal vocalist and performer I’ve worked with for 5 years now. She is the most amazing singer and entertainer I’ve had the pleasure of performing with! This last show we did together at Bum Rogers was especially memorable. With the confidence of all the fantastic female performers of my time and the beauty of the top models in the world she graces the audience with unforgettable moments singing her heart out to perfection. She has the ability to make a hit song her own with ease. Always professional and on time even if it means getting to the event early. There’s not a crowd of strangers who don’t adore her and want to know who she is. Nicole is the absolute truth when it comes to live entertainment from singing to writing, acting and running things. She’s a powerful woman with style and essence.
