\nInfo
Sitting across from Leslie DiNicola, you get the feeling that you\u2019re sipping coffee with Sandra Bullock or Jennifer Aniston- the sexy \u201cgirl next door.\u201d But when she opens her mouth on stage, she unleashes the soulful blues diva that will rock your world. Not many artists today can dazzle 38,000 people at Citi Field and then, moments later, take the stage at an intimate club like Googie\u2019s Lounge and captivate the audience with merely a whisper into the microphone. But Leslie DiNicola can. And has.
DiNicola moved around a lot when she was growing up, and has that unique perspective of someone who\u2019s been \u201cthe new kid at school\u201d a few too many times. After graduating from Syracuse University, Leslie found herself pulled in opposite directions by her love of music and her love of sailing. She reflects, \u201cBy the time I was 22 and moved to Manhattan, I had already lived in 8 different places. No matter how much you like a place, the way I liked NY, there\u2019s a hesitancy to get too comfortable. I think that\u2019s what kept me running off to sea so often, sailing to different countries every chance I got.\u201d
