Nick Drummond Solo

Seattle  singer-songwriter, Nick Drummond, is a chef and his music is a  sumptuous feast. To hear Drummond’s songs is to sit down at a long  dining room table, tuck in your napkin and begin to digest all that’s  set before you. First the smells and sights then the sounds and  conversations that swirl about. With the close and reopening of your  eyes, your table is suddenly transported outdoors, Mad Hatter-style,  with teacups and intoxicated cats draped over their delicate plates. The  songs continue, lavishly.

Drummond  is a mainstay in the Emerald City. Whether performing solo with nimble  fingers and elastic vocals or backed by some of the region’s best  players, from the renowned organist Joe Doria, celebrated guitarist Cole  Schuster, or the pocket-perfect combination of bassist Mark Mattrey and  drummer Ehssan Karimi, Drummond brings his sonic cornucopia to  audiences in rooms of all sizes and states. He’s sold out nights at Jazz  Alley and the Triple Door. He’s played the Showbox and Neumos, fingers  dancing on guitars and electric banjos.

The Nick Drummond Band released its debut record, Eye of the Storm,  in 2020 and it immediately earned acclaim from local press and radio,  including regular rotation on KBCS 91.3 FM. The music has earned spins  on KEXP and across the country’s college stations. Dubbed a composer of  “brilliant, Dionysian music” by public radio’s Garrison Keillor,  Drummond sings nourishing tunes perfect for banquets, caloric party  songs and even the delightful lullaby by which to blow out the candle  and prepare again for tomorrow’s indulgences.
