Thania Garcia During an intimate two-night showcase at The Sun Rose in Hollywood on April 8 and 9, Nicole Scherzinger announced the long-awaited return of her solo music career — the forthcoming EP, “Warrior.”The multi-hyphenate presented the music accompanied by a live jazz band and with multiple outfit changes and showcased her vocals via musical theater numbers as well as a new track.The unreleased song — titled “Never Going Back” — references her own self-empowerment and standing strong for what you believe in.
