Nicole David is a soca music artist from Saint Lucia. She is referred to as "St. Lucia's Queen of Soca" [1] and was a member of the soca band DN5. She is now the lead vocalist of the band Spectacle.

Carnival competition record[edit]

Nicole won the roadmarch during St Lucia Carnival 2005 with her song "Bounce". She placed third on two occasions in the St Lucia Soca Monarch competition (2004 and 2005), but decided not to participate in the competition in 2006. She represented St. Lucia in the Queen of Soca Competition in Trinidad and placed 7th.

Style[edit]

Her performance style has been compared to the performance style of Barbadian soca artiste Alison Hinds. (That explains why Nicole David had decided to imitate her in the first place)

She has a sponsorship contract with Digicel, which includes a video for her hit "Bounce".[2]
