A native Michigander, Nashon was surrounded by music and has performed music all of her life – from singing in church as a child, to being classically trained in grade school, to earning her Bachelor of Arts in vocal jazz.  She honed her musical prowess under the mentorship of pillars in the music world such as Motown’s Velvelettes, The Funk Brothers, and Narada Michael Walden (esteemed writer and producer for music greats such as  Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey).  Nashon’s recording career began in 2016 with the independent release of her studio album “The Palace & the Hut”.  The album was an 11-song expression of how she sought to introduce herself as an artist – colorfully melodic, yet boldly diverse.  As a sought-after writer and vocalist, she has also lent her talents to over a dozen recorded and live projects for fellow artists, television, and film.  

Outside of the studio, Nashon is a consummate live performer having graced stages internationally as a headliner and sharing stages with the likes of David Foster, Tank & the Bangas, Bobby McFerrin, Hans Zimmer, Liv Warfield. Ruben Studdard, Clay Aiken, and more.  Her undeniable skill both as a vocalist and guitarist has been showcased in the theatre productions “We Real Cool” and “Ada/Ava” by the Emmy Award-winning performance collective Manual Cinema.
