Nicholas Jones
I'm just a guy that writes music. I write what I feel and I do my best to play it the way it sounds in my head.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been playing guitar for ten years and writing songs for about seven. I picked up bass about four years ago and mandolin two years ago. I'm still working on piano, lap steel, and harmonica. Next is accordian and banjo.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play live from time to time, mostly around Nacogdoches or Houston.
