Nardia Drops New Single ” Is It You”

With the release of her latest single “Is It You,” Melbourne’s Nardia is ushering in a new era of deeply personal and emotionally charged music. The award-winning singer-songwriter, celebrated for her sultry vocals and genre-blurring sound, invites listeners into the intimate terrain of longing, vulnerability, and self-discovery.

“Is It You” is a masterclass in modern soul, drawing inspiration from the smooth textures of Childish Gambino and the confessional storytelling of Adele and Carole King. The track’s minimalist arrangement lets Nardia’s powerhouse vocals shine as she explores the electric uncertainty of a new attraction: “Is it You” captures that moment of intrigue when you meet someone and feel an undeniable pull toward them… The song explores the tension between attraction and curiosity, the desire to uncover someone’s true essence, and the mystery that makes love both exciting and uncertain, leaving you feeling uncomfortably excited,” Nardia explains.

The single’s release is accompanied by a whimsical, dreamlike music video, amplifying the song’s themes of reality versus fantasy. Nardia’s live show at the Brunswick Ballroom, featuring a 10-piece band, promises to be a celebration of this new chapter—blending big vocals, rich harmonies, and a powerful emotional journey for her audience.

Nardia’s rise is marked by a series of standout achievements: supporting iconic artists like Russell Morris and Tex Perkins, delivering soulful sets for Beyoncé and Adele’s VIP audiences, and starring in acclaimed tribute shows such as Eulogy for a Genius and her Etta James & B.B. King performances with Jimi Hocking. Her leadership of Rambal, which topped the Australian Blues & Roots charts and won a Chain Award, further highlights her versatility and impact.

Beyond her musical prowess, Nardia is driven by a mission to empower and unite—her music is a movement, encouraging listeners to embrace their stories and find strength in vulnerability. As she prepares to record in Nashville with a world-class production team, “Is It You” stands as both a personal milestone and a promise of even greater things to come.
