Nicholas Roy's debut EP release “Cardboard Heart" introduces an honest and unaffected young talent, as a part of that new brand of music that doesn’t sit comfortably in any one genre, but needs more room, more descriptors, to adequately express it. However you want to describe it, it grabs you in a second, pulls you right in and holds you there.
The entire gig is 100% original and 100% independent. Every song offers a something different from his successful fusion of contemporary pop/rock and the lyrical soul-based rock from a previous generation – hints of Dylan, Elton John, Paul Simon, and Ray Charles sitting comfortably alongside tones of The Dresden Dolls, Rufus Wainright, Ben Folds, and The Scissor Sisters! Every song is candid and uncluttered, and every show executed with a casual sophistication, making watching and listening to this up and coming star a real pleasure.
Nicholas Roy has already played to packed houses at premiere Melbourne venues such as The Corner Hotel and Manchester Lane. Nicholas Roy is building an impressive reputation around Melbourne as a live performer.
Featuring five new tracks, the 'Cardboard Heart' EP is hard to define, but easy to understand. Recorded with the lyrics and the ability of the songs to speak for themselves in mind, 'Cardboard Heart' offers something unmistakably new, with a definite nod to some of the greats of the past.
