Nick Gordon

Nick Gordon is one of those rare musical talents. Nick is an outstanding songwriter, a great singer and a hot guitar player, a true triple threat. Nick has worked with some big names in the music industry including the recording of a demo track with Gerry Goffin, (co-writer of “One Fine Day”, “Up on the Roof”, “Saving All My Love for You”), and Barry Goldberg, (Electric Flag, Chicago Blues Reunion) in 2006. Goldberg, who has performed with and produced Bob Dylan and founded the Goldberg/Miller Blues Band with Steve Miller in the 60’s, described the CD as “Great songs, Great blues, Great voice”. “Chronic Blues Party” is set for National release on Swingsuit Records October 20, 2007 with a fall and spring tour slated to promote the release.“Chronic Blues Party” is loaded with musical and lyrical hooks, while delivering some of the hottest solo work on guitar, blues harp, and keyboards. Hellhounds and Let’s Make a Deal are traditional blues arrangements, while still sounding exciting and fresh. Tapcity, Roll This Joint and Bluesman, are blues with rock and pop influences making them edgy and appealing while also delivering smokin’ hot solos. Other tracts on the CD are a mix of rock and ballads, including “Baltimore” which became a 1 hit in Australia.Nick is currently working with Goldberg on songs for his follow-up CD due for release in summer of 2008. The musicians are a veritable who’s who of Rock-n-Roll’s most successful session and touring pros, such as; Gary Mallaber, (Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Steve Miller, Van Morrison etc.), Bob Glaub, (Jackson Browne, Tracy Chapman, Crosby Stills and Nash, Rod Stewart, Don Henley, etc.), Johnny Lee Schell, (Bonnie Raitt, Joe Cocker, John Lee Hooker, Buddy Guy, Lucinda Williams, Taj Mahal, etc).“Great songs, Great blues, Great voice”. Barry Goldberg (Electric Flag, Chicago Blues Reunion) “Chronic Blues Party powers me up and makes me want to dance, all killer no filler” Leo Shumaker KCSB Bluesland Radio 91.9 Santa Barbara Blues Society “Many show up to hear the guitar pyrotechnics of Roby Duron. It’s a wonder the Christmas Lights don’t explode” Bill Locey Ventura Co. Star.
