Event Description
In a small cabin on an overnight ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam, the lyrics of the single from ‘Another Time Around’ were born as Nick La Riviere collaborated with Spirit of the West’s Geoffrey Kelly. As a trombonist, bassist, singer, and conch shell player who’s toured with award winning bands across Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, England, Luxembourg, the USA, and Mexico, Nick seeks out quiet moments on the road to find creativity. He’s a member of The Paperboys, Locarno, The HiFi, and has performed with Michael Kaeshammer, Nikki Yanofsky, Adonis Puentes, and the Temptations, among many others. Influenced by diverse genres and artists, Nick names Trombone Shorty, Paul Simon, Sam Cooke, and Ben Folds as his top four for this album. This is the album for everyone who likes variety in a performance – versatile musicians performing a heavy funky rock number, followed by a dynamic 12/8 ballad, or a catchy classic R&B style sing along.
The Nick La Riviere Band is:
Nick La Riviere (harmonizer trombone, vocals, conch shells)
Pedro Mota (guitar, vocals)
Aidan Miller (keyboards, vocals)
Sean Drabitt (bass)
Damian Graham (drums)
