Nardia’s “Is It You” Marks a New Leap for Australian Soul

Nardia is stepping confidently onto the global stage with her new single “Is It You,” a release that signals a bold new chapter in her career. Known for her contemporary R&B and soul, Nardia’s latest track explores themes of love, longing, and self-discovery, all wrapped in a haunting melody and rich instrumentation. The song’s emotional honesty and minimalist production allow her voice to shine, capturing the vulnerability and complexity of human connection.
Fresh from her standout performance at the 2025 International Blues Challenge in Memphis—where she was the only female artist to reach the Top 5 among 400 acts—Nardia has secured U.S. management and will head to Nashville to work with Grammy-winning producer Boo Mitchell at Royal Studios. This move comes just after her Australian single launch and marks a significant step in expanding her reach to international audiences.
Nardia’s artistry goes beyond her vocal prowess. She has a reputation for commanding the stage, whether leading tributes to legends like Ray Charles or fronting bands that top the Australian Blues & Roots charts. Her mission is to empower listeners to embrace their imperfections and find strength in their own stories, using music as a form of healing and unity.
“Is It You” is an intent from an artist who is building a movement through shared experiences and powerful narratives. With her upcoming album Own Every Scar set for release later this year, Nardia will unite audiences with her timeless sound and genuine emotional artistry.
