Some artists have a way of turning growing pains, daydreams and quiet moments into something that feels universal. Nish Faith is one of those artists. Playful, honest and deeply rooted in storytelling, her music captures the in-between stages of life – the moments of transformation, uncertainty and self-discovery that shape who we become.
Growing up, Nish was always surrounded by music and stories. It quickly became more than background noise – it was a way to understand her emotions and explore her identity. “Life wasn’t always straightforward,” she tells me, “but those early experiences shaped how I express myself through art today.” Music became a space where she could make sense of things when words alone weren’t enough.
Although music had always been present, it was during her teenage years that it truly became part of her identity. What began as a personal outlet slowly turned into something she knew she wanted to pursue seriously. That shift became real in 2022 while travelling in Australia, where her journey as a recording artist properly began. Time spent writing and working in the studio abroad marked a creative turning point – one that still influences her sound today.
As an artist, Nish describes herself as playful and honest, drawn to coming-of-age moments and real emotion. “I love the highs, the lows, the awkwardness and the magic of growing up,” she says. Her influences reflect that sense of nostalgia and fun – from Disney and Taylor Swift to early 2000s Y2K pop and skater-girl energy. It’s a mix that feels familiar but fresh, giving her music warmth, colour and personality.
Being an independent artist has given Nish full creative freedom, but it hasn’t been without its challenges. “It’s been a journey of growth, learning and resilience,” she explains. Independence means backing herself every step of the way, staying motivated, and trusting her instincts. Along the way, she’s learned to embrace experimentation and lean on the communities around her for support and inspiration – something she values deeply.
When it comes to creating, inspiration can strike anywhere. Films she loves, small everyday moments, or simply how she’s feeling that day all feed into her songwriting. At the heart of it is a desire to capture the messy, emotional and joyful parts of growing up and turn them into songs people can truly connect with.
That sense of connection is everything to Nish. “Music is my way of connecting with others on a deeper level,” she says. “I hope listeners feel seen and understood when they hear my work.” It’s that shared emotional experience – the feeling that someone else gets it – that makes creating music so meaningful for her.
Those themes come together beautifully on Moonlight Metamorphosis, Nish’s EP born from a period of personal transformation and self-reflection. The project explores contrasts – light and darkness, growth and struggle – and captures a specific chapter of her life through sound. Some of the themes were intentional from the start, while others emerged naturally as the songs took shape. Rather than forcing a concept, Nish allowed the creative process to lead, resulting in an EP that feels both thoughtful and instinctive.
Since its release, the response has been overwhelmingly positive. “Everyone’s said such encouraging things,” she says, which has been hugely affirming. One standout moment has been the music video for Transformation, which not only brought the track to life visually but has also been entered for awards this year. Seeing the project fully realised has been both exciting and rewarding.
Looking ahead, Nish is focused on continuing to evolve. New music is on the way, alongside festival shows and collaborations with other artists. She’s also expanding her creative world beyond music, currently editing YouTube vlogs and merging her music videos and channel content into one cohesive space. Her longer-term vision is as fun as it is fitting – creating a theme song or video to kick everything off, inspired by classic Disney Channel or sitcom intro vibes.
Nish Faith is an artist in motion – growing, experimenting and embracing every stage of the journey. With her honesty, creativity and genuine connection to listeners, she’s building something that feels deeply personal yet widely relatable. Wherever she takes things next, one thing’s certain – her story is only just beginning.
