Gary Nicholson | Opener: Cassie Peterson September 23, 2011

Whether you are looking for a hit song, a cool guitar groove, a great record production, or a top entertainer, Gary Nicholson is your “go-to” guy in Music City, U.S.A. A 2006 nominee for Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, Nicholson has had more than 350 of his songs recorded, has won 26 ASCAP songwriting awards, and is responsible for more than a dozen major hits. Unlike most tunesmiths, he is not bound by musical genre. His songs routinely top the country hit parade. But rock bands, blues artists, folk stars, and bluegrass acts have also embraced him as a songwriter. As an entertainer, you may find him not only performing his own songs, but also in the guise of “Whitey Johnson”, his bluesman alter-ego, or as a member of the rhythm-happy Fortunate Sons rock band. In short, there’s nothing Nicholson touches that isn’t golden.
