Details:
Manitoba-born Jeff Nicholson, son of an RCMP officer, grew up in points as scattered across Canada as St. John''s, Newfoundland and Regina,Saskatchewan, beginning his musical career as the drummer for a country band while at the University of Regina. Switching to guitar, he began writing songs and playing at folk venues in the1980s. Moving to Japan in 1990, he continued playing, alone and in bands, and released a CD,''Bang'', in 2000. A video of ''Hockey'', from the album, is currently a fan favourite in hockey arenas both major and minor-league across North America. It was also televised on CBC''s Hockey Day in Canada (2004).
Jeff now divides his time between Kingston and Tokyo.
This CD includes a smoking cover of Bob Dylan''s ''Like a Rolling Stone'' and a brand new hockey song: ''The Maple Leafs Forever''. ''Big Stupid Smile'' may remind you of someone you know while ''Whole Lotta Nothing'' takes a sour poke at love gone wrong. There''s even a scorcher that deserves airplay at the racing track: ''Wild Open Speed''.
''Who Do You Think You Are?'', featuring Japan''s top musicians, will thrill its listeners. It''s fresh and original folk/rock that will cut right through. Perfect music for an outdoor barbecue or for a noisy bar.
Listen for ''The Maple Leafs Forever'' at the Air Canada Centre this season!
