Nicky Stevens (born Helen Maria Thomas in Carmarthen, Wales, 3 December 1949)[1][2] is a singer, famous as a member of pop group Brotherhood of Man.
In 1972, while working as a session singer and trying to secure a record deal as a solo artist, Stevens came to the attention of Tony Hiller, who was looking to recruit new members for his group Brotherhood of Man.
Later in the year another female singer was added to the group, Sandra Stevens (no relation) and as a four-piece, Brotherhood of Man went on to enjoy great success around the world.
[9][10] In addition to singing, Stevens is a pianist, and performed the piano accompaniment to an otherwise a cappella recording of "Send in the Clowns" in 1978, which was featured on the band's Twenty Greatest album.
Stevens continued to perform with Brotherhood of Man in its most famous line-up, taking in UK tours and television appearances throughout Europe.
[12] During the Coronavirus pandemic, Stevens performed in a nursing home in Ferndown, where she offered music therapy, ran arts & crafts sessions and spent one-to-one time with individual residents.
[3] Since moving to Dorset, Stevens has begun appearing in Christmas pantomimes including Cinderella at Weymouth Pavilion in 2013 and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves at the Tivoli, Wimborne in 2014.
