Nick lives and works in Salisbury, Wiltshire
in the U.K. He's been playing guitar for nigh on forty years, and teaching
privately for about fifteen. He has a unique relationship with the guitar, not
only having been a player for years: he makes his living as a luthier,
building and repairing guitars.
One
of Nick's specialties is the blues. He plays with a gritty, authentic
feel, and has several lessons that delve into blues slide, old Delta styles,
and more.
Nick has played in many amateur and semi-pro bands over the years, playing
many different styles of music including blues, rock, funk, and punk. Nick
more
recently developed a passion for jazz, and his tastes these days range
from Django Reinhardt to trance and world music.
His current band is "The Kings of Lounge", consisting of two acoustic guitars,
double bass and drums, playing a selection of laid-back tunes from around the
world.
