Nigel Mack & The Blues Attack

About Me

Hailing originally from Saskatoon Canada, Nigel Mack spent 15 years in Vancouver, BC before moving to the ‘center of the blues world’, Chicago, IL in 2003. Through the years this hard-working artist has toured North America relentlessly (logging over half a million miles) and Europe, headlining many top blues venues and festivals. It was this heavy road-work that gave rise to the tiltle of Nigel's 2001 release 'Road Rage'.As a performer Nigel Mack pays a great deal of respect to the blues greats that have influenced him, while embracing the the modern funk-blues commonly heard on the Chicago blues scene of today.A prolific songwriter, Nigel's music has been heard around the globe on several internationally syndicated television programs including 'Time of Your Life' and 'Dawson's Creek'.In addition to his full-blown band show Nigel often performs in a solo acoustic format. With his '64 Martin acoustic and a 1929 National steel guitar, Nigel plays music from such lumiaries as Son House, Willy Dixon and Tampa Red in addition to his original tunes.CDs available at http://cdbaby.com/cd/nigelmackWe are now on iTunes just click on this link! http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum? playListId=194767168See the band's demo DVD at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-nnpfzGkaA
