Janel Nabong
Indie American singer-songwriter, composer, and producer Janel Nabong creates music inspired by stories from her life as well as from her struggles with mental illness. Janel’s experiences with having Bipolar, BPD, Schizophrenia and PTSD has motivated her to use her passion of music to help shed light and raise awareness on mental health. “I want to save others through my music, as music saved my life growing up" - says Janel.
Her richly textured voice oscillates from velvety breathy tones to strikingly powerful belts from song to song. Her piano based modern ethereal synths exquisitely layer over a bed of hypnotic hip hop and trap type beats. Her emotional heart-wrenching songs and performances often bring to light the full range of human emotions we all experience. One of her devoted listeners recounts listening to Janel's music: “Just listening to her sing is a whole experience in itself, I feel as if I knew her personally and that she understood me.”
Janel got her start posting cover songs on YouTube which now have over a half a million views. She has garnered the attention of industry insider Rick Barker, former manager for Taylor Swift who recognized her talent early on and took her under his wing. She then started producing and recording music in her bedroom which led to the release of her first single “Hear Me” and her first LP “Temperamental”, which has attracted listeners from over 84 countries worldwide within the first few months of release.
Janel live streams and performs regularly on social media platforms such as Twitch and YouTube and is currently working on her second full-length album under the direction of CCVM: Label without Walls.
