Underground dance diva Nancy Nova rose to prominence with New Wave tracks including The Force, Heaven and Akiri Non Stop – all with an artistic electronic edge. Now Nancy returns with brand new studio album Tour De Force comprised of a number of original tracks and a couple of headspinningly brilliant covers.
Tour De Force sees Nancy and producer Kingbones ’embrace European dance styles infused with a quintessentially British twist’, in sixteen original numbers and two covers. Kate Bush classic Wuthering Heights receives a deliciously insane Eurotrance makeover, whilst ABBA’s The Winner Takes It All works with Nancy’s delightfully electro spin.
Commenting on the new album, Nancy offers:“Having been an 80’s underground disco diva, I’ve noticed a renewed love for this genre. Now is the perfect time to release my never-before-heard album, perfect for lovers of vintage electro. Tour De Force is a celebration of that vibrant era, featuring 16 tracks, including hit singles and fresh interpretations of timeless classics.”
Highlights include the icy dramatic pop of Lifeline, the heartfelt yet danceable You Come and You Go, and the electrifying The Force (Megamix). Songs like Heavens You Know and Copy delve into themes of love, loss, and dystopian visions, while Lily shines as a compelling anti-war anthem, highlighting Nancy’s talent for fusing impactful storytelling with pulsating, beat-driven energy.
Nancy rose to prominence as a founding member of band Toto Coelo before pursuing a solo career which was met with success across Europe and further afield. Nancy is the daughter of television legend Bob Holness, pursuing a career in acting before she was drawn to the music world.
The star is planning a series of live dates, noting: “I can’t wait to connect with fans and celebrate the 80’s electro vibe together. This album is for them—for the ones who have supported me through the years and for the new listeners discovering this timeless genre.”
