Nadia, Felicia, Celia and Daria are four Chinese-American sisters from Los Angeles that make up the JAZMIN Sisters. The name was inspired by the sisters' jazz influence and the Asian Jasmine flower which symbolizes happiness.
Daughters of a preacher and a piano teacher, the girls were raised in a house with strict rules. Banned from listening to mainstream radio, the sisters grew up on Motown, Oldies, Jazz and American Standards. When they weren't studying, the sisters would unleash their energy by singing, dancing and being creative. From writing their own songs to choreographing dance routines, performing was their passion from the start.
Although tight-knit, each sister brings something special to the table. Nadia has a background in fashion and loves styling the girls. Felicia has a passion for painting and an eye for design. On the opposite end is NBA fanatic Celia, the in-house journalist with a love for words. Although Daria is the youngest she has a big voice that holds the band together, making her the "Michael" of their "Jackson 4". As a group, the JAZMIN Sisters create a contagious chemistry apparent through the growing popularity of their acappella videos featuring cover songs in four part harmony, attracting the attention of a large devoted online following.
The sisters gained nationwide exposure appearing on MTV's Top Pop Group and became finalists on the premiere season of the series. Each week, they worked alongside industry veterans and received praise from artists like Keri Hilson, Eve, Ashanti, Omarion, Michelle Williams (Destiny's Child), Taboo (Black Eyed Peas) and renowned choreographer Brian Friedman (Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, N*SYNC, Prince).
In addition, the girls were chosen by NBC as a finalist on America's Got Talent. They were also on NBC's StarTomorrow music competition led by legendary music producer David Foster who likened them to En Vogue and TLC where they advanced to become one of the Top 100 Bands winning the opportunity to jam with Foster and Mick Fleetwood.
Over the past few months, their song "You" which samples SWV's “Weak” has been invadig airwaves and causing quite the buzz.
With their popularity increasing, the quartet has finally released their EP ’90s Baby where they explore other sounds of the ’90s by sampling classics like 2Pac’s “I Get Around” and Q-Tip’s “Vibrant Thing.” The girls have worked with Eve, Keri Hilson and have performed on America’s Got Talent.
