Edinburgh singer Nina Nesbitt releases sultry house music track with legendary DJ

Former Balerno High School pupil moves in a surprising new direction on her latest single.

Edinburgh pop singer Nina Nesbitt explores new territory on her latest release - a sultry house music track with renowned Dutch-Moroccan DJ R3HAB.

Family Values features the former Balerno High School pupil's soulful vocals at the forefront, supported by R3HAB's signature combination of plucky bass, smooth piano, and driving percussion.

R3HAB first teamed up with 25-year-old Nina when he remixed her single Somebody Special back in March 2018.

“Nina's writing style is clever and surprising, which makes working on songs exciting and fun," said R3HAB. ”She's got the best sense of humour and a fun outlook on the world, and I think our song captures that perfectly.”

Nina said: “I wrote Family Values on a day off last festival season while sitting on a trampoline with a guitar, and it's amazing to see where R3HAB has taken it and how it's transformed since then.”
