PRESS RELEASE:

CEO of Black River Entertainment Gordon Kerr has announced the signing of Nikita Karmen to Black River’s, Passport Productions.

An Australian native, Nikita Karmen began crafting her songwriting back home near the beaches of Sydney and made the move to Nashville, TN in November of 2015.

With a regular gig opening for and as part of Bobby Bones and the Raging Idiots, the musical comedy group comprised of Bobby Bones and Producer Eddie from iHeartMedia’s The Bobby Bones Show, Nikita will tour much of the United States.

Her newest opportunity to step up to the plate in Nashville is with the Australian release of “Out of the Park,” a song she penned as a message of hope for her sister, someday meeting the right guy.

“Being on the other side of the world and having the opportunity to release a song back at home is so exciting to me,” said Nikita. “While Nashville is where I have always dreamed of being, I started writing songs back in Australia so it feels amazing to have something for all my friends and family to hear over there.”
