Nina Nesbitt
Nina Lindberg Nesbitt (born 11 July 1994) is a Scottish singer and musician. She is best known for her UK and Scottish top 40 hit singles "Stay Out" and "Selfies". She also earned further recognition with her rendition of Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop" which was featured in an advert for the department store John Lewis.
Nesbitt released her debut studio album, Peroxide on February 2014, which debuted at No. 1 in her native Scotland. Her follow-up records, The Sun Will Come Up, the Seasons Will Change (2019) and Älskar (2022), also performed well, with all reaching inside the top 5 in the Scottish Album Charts. In 2024, she formed her own record label Apple Tree Records and released her fourth studio album Mountain Music, which debuted at No. 3 on Scotland, topped the UK Folk Albums Chart and became her most critically acclaimed record to date.
In addition to her solo work, she has written songs for other artists, including Jessie Ware, Olivia Holt, Perrie, Jasmine Thompson and the Shires, and has also collaborated with Passenger. She has supported live artists such as Stevie Nicks, Jake Bugg, Justin Bieber, and Lewis Capaldi.
Nesbitt was born on 11 July 1994 in Livingston, to Mike, a Scottish manager in the defence industry, and Caty, a Swedish social worker. She attended the small village school in Bellsquarry, Livingston. At 12, she moved to Balerno, a suburb of Edinburgh, and attended Balerno Community High School. She studied music at Stevenson College, Edinburgh.
Nesbitt plays the guitar, piano and flute. She began playing the guitar at the age of fifteen. After hearing Taylor Swift's album Fearless (2008), she uploaded her first cover to YouTube. A friend from school agreed to record videos of her playing songs for her YouTube channel, for £20 a time. Positive feedback inspired her to continue writing and recording songs in her bedroom, as well as to continue uploading more videos.
As a child, she competed in regional and national gymnastic competitions for both Pentland Rhythmic Gymnastics Club and Scotland. She was also part of the Scottish team training for the Commonwealth Games. At age 14, Nesbitt also started modelling, due to her love of fashion. Nesbitt was registered to Colours modelling agency, based in Glasgow. She quit modelling before pursuing music as she did not like the industry, claiming it put out a "negative message." However, Nesbitt has since modelled for Yumi, Jack Wills, Calvin Klein and American Eagle.
Nesbitt released her debut extended play Live Take under the independent label N2 Records on December 5, 2011. She then met musician Ed Sheeran before a radio gig he was scheduled to perform in Edinburgh. After asking him for advice for aspiring singer-songwriters, and playing him a song on his guitar, she was invited to support him on his European tour. She was also invited to support Example after he heard her cover of his song "Stay Awake". She also appeared in the music video for Sheeran's single "Drunk".
Her second EP, The Apple Tree, was released in April 2012 via AWAL and reached No. 6 on the iTunes download charts after receiving airplay on BBC Radio 1, and also reached No. 1 on the iTunes singer/songwriter chart. On 9 October 2012, Nesbitt embarked on her second UK headline tour, to support the release of her debut single, "Boy", under new label, Island Records. The tour included support from singer-songwriter Josh Kumra and singer-songwriter Billy Lockett. The tour commenced on 9 October 2012 at Òran Mór, Glasgow, Scotland and finished on 18 October 2012 at Dingwalls, London, England. Her third EP, Stay Out, was released on 8 April 2013; its title track of the same name entered the charts at No. 21 in April 2013. Her next EP, Way in the World, was released on 21 July 2013. The title track was released as a single, and the music video released on 12 June 2013. Nesbitt's next single was a cover of the Fleetwood Mac song, "Don't Stop", and is used in an advert for the department store John Lewis. On 6 September 2013, Nesbitt sang "Flower of Scotland" at Hampden Park before Scotland played Belgium in a Group A World Cup Qualifier.
