Guitarist Nick Diaz is a musical chameleon who negotiates his cinematic shifts and twists with passion and purpose . . .
-Michael Molenda, Guitar Player Magazine
It's rare to find young blues guitar demigods who are embodying the spirit of the music, not just aping it, and rarer still to find one who's savvy and talented enough to incorporate other styles into the mix. Fortunately for us all, transplanted Texan Nick Diaz and his power trio deliver on all of the above . . . . His stylistic breadth is impressive, too, covering the entire history of blues-rock . . . . Smart guitar wizards are hard to come by.
-Robert Fontenot, Offbeat Magazine
. . . . Guitarist Nick Diaz piles enough Led Zeppelin riffs to build several houses of the holy.
