Nina Diaz, lead singer for the San Antonio band Girl in a Coma, has been hailed by NPR as “one of the two or three most exciting, scary-good vocalists in rock today.” At age 13 Nina joined her older sister and friend to form Girl in Coma. The band was signed by Joan Jett to her label, Blackheart Records. GIAC’s 2007 debut album, was a critical hit and reached No. 23 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart. Girl in a Coma released three more albums and toured the world opening for bands such as Morrissey, Tegan and Sara, Amanda Palmer, Sia, Smashing Pumpkins and many more.

Nina's distinctive voice and powerful live performances attracted the attention of fans, producers and fellow artists. Nina collaborated with Tiësto to co-write the dance track, “In Your Mind” and with GIAC composed a song for Robert Rodriguez's Machete.

Being a public performer at such an early age took a toll and Nina found an outlet as she began writing new material that was all her own. After spending time arranging over a dozen new songs, she headed to Sonic Ranch Studios in West Texas to work with producer Manuel Calderon and was joined by musicians, David Garza and Patricio Davila. Nina launched her new solo project with a series of sold out concerts at The Belmont in Austin, Texas. Since then, Nina and her five-piece band have played at clubs throughout the southwest, California and New York as well as at The Tobin Center, Maverick Music Festival and the Fiesta de la Flor Festival. Her debut solo album will be released later this year.
