American songwriter
“Kailey Nicole pens a heartfelt letter to her 16-year-old self with her new song. “Aim a Little Higher,” co-written with Mikal Blue and Brett Pemberton, seeks to impart a bit of wisdom through plenty of cheekiness and charm. I wrote a letter to the old me / The girl that used to think / Love’s a simple recipe of sweet tea and harmony / How dumb could she be, she sings, fully owning up to her naivety in the past.”

“Nicole's voice is thick as honey and rings with a traditional country twang. Although Nicole sings about a boy, the lyrics written by Nicole and Noah Gregory Smith feel powerful and true to anyone who is moving on from a broken-down relationship, romantic or not, and tries to hold steady as they push forward. It's a song of redemption and leaving the past behind”

Drinking songs are fairly common country music, but what makes Nicole’s latest offering stand out is its narrative style and subject matter - Casamigos. On this track, the singer delightful personifies her favorite tequila and recounts how it’s been her steadfast companion.
