Power, emotion, soul, stunning vocals and strong musicality are just a few descriptions that came to mind when listening to any one of She Nova’s original songs. I first heard She Nova early in 2020 with her release of “Neon Tears”; and I literally could not stop playing that song. The level of musicality, powerful lyrics and alluring vocals in She Nova’s music draws fans in for a unique experience with masterful production, vocals and songwriting.
Her cover of Lady Gaga’s “Alice” among other mainstream artists’ covers are one of the only covers that actually do justice to the original artist. If I had to compare her to any mainstream artist, She Nova gives me strong Lady Gaga and Sia combined vibes with her own original, purple twist. 100 percent mega pop star with soul in the making! Most recently, she has released “Gray”, a song about being an outsider and misunderstood. The lyrics of this song speak volumes about being your own unique self and the struggle of not fitting into a mold. Again, I cannot say enough how much I absolutely love the musicianship and talent of She Nova’s songs.
Had to throw in another original song “By Myself” because her music is just too good!
In addition to her power pop original music, She Nova also has a podcast entitled, Boss Pod, where she interviews and has honest conversations with various guests in the music industry. Boss Pod explores what really goes into creating “a work of art”. Host and creator, She Nova interviews influential people of all artistic fields from musicians and writers, to videographers and designers, to discuss how they turned their passions into their livelihoods. Being an artist in music herself, Nova asks the hard questions to reveal the true nature of the process and progress of being an artist.

She Nova is a vegan and when recently asked about her favorite noshes she responded with, “I love sweetssss! But I’m vegan and try to limit sugar so RIP my fave: donuts!!! Also love all fruits! Fave dish: vegan Thai tom kah soup and summer rolls with peanut sauce! And spaghetti is good too…”
After listening to She Nova’s music for inspiration, I decided to go with making a healthy version of her favorite dessert, sugar-free vegan donuts with a purple glaze. These donuts are cakey, sweet and you absolutely will not believe they are sugar free. So get your mixing bowl out, your ipad on She Nova’s YouTube channel and get to baking! 🙂
