Биография

Stephanie Hatzinikolis is a Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter with a passion for creating lush, dreamy, indie-pop vibes while tipping her hat to alt-folk, alternative, and indie-rock. Inspired by the likes of Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens, and The Beatles, her piano-first, melody-heavy style has been praised as “songwriting that breaks our collective hearts.” After a year of releasing singles, Hatzinikolis unveils her newest EP, Mockingbird Days. On this album, she continues to pull from a wide variety of genres, wrapping them into one cohesive effort. These songs take us deeper into her life and explore themes of chronic depression, isolation, loneliness, and sobriety — all while embedding glimmers of hope and warmth within. Hatzinikolis’ music is not just a place for people to feel seen and understood, but also an experience that must be absorbed for the art that it is. Mockingbird Days was produced by Killah Cortez (The Kooks, JJ Wilde, Cheekface) and recorded at New Monkey Studio, Elliott Smith’s former studio, in Van Nuys, CA. The album features artistic and musical contributions from Nico Barouhas and Alex “Gonzo” Gonzalez, with mastering by Joe Bozzi.
