With boyish good looks and an ambitious smile, the cover of Nick Gill’s third CD highlights the 18-year-old’s vocal talent.
Recorded locally at Fudge Studios and produced by Jack Miele (The Molly Ringwalds) and Jacques DeLatour, Gill shows much promise musically as his career has only just begun. There’s great raw emotion communicated through his tracks enabling Gill to sound more like a young Jack Johnson rather than a high school student playing guitar.
Gill conveys this emotion successfully on “How It Feels (to Lose a Friend)” and speaks of not conforming to society’s demands in “That Life,” embellished by local cello player Jack Craft. Gill is definitely one artist to keep your eye on as he has the potential to be on VH1 in rotation and following in John Mayer’s footsteps.
Gorillaz is a super classic band, and for a good reason. With some of the best combinations of electronic music, featuring artists from Mos Def, to MF Doom, it's a really incredible band.
Their newest album, "The Fall", was even recording entirely on an iPad! I highly recommend they become an integral part to your music library, and I've been listening to them for the last month straight (Religiously).
