Nick Black is a fun, optimistic and authentic young artist from Memphis, Tenn. Influenced by the feel-good music of Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars, and the musicality of legacy acts such as Al Green and Sting, Black has created his music to sound modern and unique, yet familiar and nostalgic.
He strives to bring his optimistic life-vision to his music, imbuing his beliefs in human nature and the universe, that are true, honest, perceptive and passionate. Craving stardom since a child, multi-instrumentalist / vocalist Black is determined now more than ever to reach and exceed his goals.
His stage presence as an entertainer is quite something to behold. Black pulls the audience in and doesn’t let them go. He creates an experience that he wants everyone to be part of. Pulling people up from the crowd, singing to a fan in the front row...everyone's included. He grew up between two worlds: his family’s deep ties to church, and his hometown of Memphis where Soul, RnB, Rock N’ Roll and Blues legends made names for themselves, Black’s sound is an organically grown phenomenon, honed at open mic nights, in church, at hundreds of club gigs, and now on larger stages across the USA.
Since his first album in 2012, The Soul Diaries, his authenticity and passion has been the foundation of his identity, both as a person and as an artist. Venturing into new territory with his recently released single, “Grenadine”, Black is excited to pursue his curiosity in electronic music, adding dance beats to his extremely versatile sound.
