Description
NICK WATERHOUSE (album release)This is the album release for Nick Waterhouse's debut album!
Nick Waterhouse plays R&B music like it's new again - raw and rhythmic and vital, without irony and shy of revivalism. Conceived in the bedrooms, MUNI commutes, and DJ booths of San Francisco, and finally birthed in his native, all-analog studio in Southern California, the self-produced 45 single "Some Place" has caught the ear of the modern listener. After a sell-out pressing and coverage from the likes of The San Francisco Chronicle, LA Record, Aquarium Drunkard, and XM Sirius radio - including play on Lou Reed's own show - he has taken to performing with the Tarots, a rough n' ready group of guys and girls. The two-horn, three-girl and rhythm section ensemble brings to life the sax-driven sound of Waterhouse's particular brand of American music.
"Self described as a 'midnight-hour R&B shake-fest' the self-produced debut of L.A. based Waterhouse, backed by the Turn-Keys, is an eerie R&B rhumba found on the flip with the torrid saxophone of Ira Raibon trading fours with the rest of the group. In short, “Some Place” cooks." --Aquarium Drunkard
