Stella Nesci LIVE at Ki Smith Gallery

Stella Nesci is an 18-year-old pop singer from Syracuse, NY. Growing up in a big family, Stella developed a passion for entertaining early on, from choreographing dances with her cousins to persuade their parents for sleepovers, to performing in musical theatre. Drawing inspiration from artists like Tate McRae, Alessi Rose, and early Lorde, Stella has crafted a sound that’s both raw and relatable. She’s performed at celebrated venues like The Lost Horizon and Funk N Waffles, and she’s built a small but fiercely loyal fanbase on TikTok ~ lialekha is an emerging artist from New York, writing about growing up as a mixed-race woman, navigating adulthood, and dealing with everything that comes with love, loss, and growth. Her music can best be described as where queer pop meets 2010s movie-musicals; so, basically, music that makes you want to go 100 on the highway with the windows down.
