Boston-bred vocalist and songwriter Darcie Nicole returns with "Vapor," a smooth, jazz-inflected R&B single featuring Boris A. Borovoy. A Berklee College of Music alumna and Recording Academy professional member, Darcie brings a three-octave range and horn-like phrasing to a track that sits right in the pocket between classic soul and late-night jazz.

Her résumé runs deep: fronting the award-winning band Velvet Stylus, backing artists like Medusa and Choklate, and sharing stages from the Jam Master Jay Foundation benefit to the New England Urban Music Awards. Critics have praised her densely stacked vocal arrangements and songwriting rooted in lived experience - resilience, self-worth, and love handled with class.
