, a professional jazz musician who played with Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Freddie Slack, and many others. "My grandpa showed me how to hold the trainer \u2002ute, he played a short melody, and I played it right back to him."
At the age of 22 , Nick got serious about music. He taught himself the guitar and began playing Chicago-style electric blues, but it would be the music of bluesman Robert Johnson that became the catalyst for a total dedication to country blues and spiritual music.
After an invitation to play at the legendary Bentonia Blues Festival in Bentonia, MS, he began receiving attention from record labels and people from the entertainment industry. Today, Nick performs with notable musicians and festivals in addition to operating a virtual music venue called "Overall Junction" which brings together the biggest names in country blues.
Nick is a humble man who credits Christ, who he describes as his creator, for giving him "a good ear and rhythm in his soul", and his mother and grandpa for their musical training when he was a child.
"Coming from a musical family, master guitarist Nick Wade continues in the tradition with this strong outing of classic and original acoustic blues. His sincere dedication to the history, heritage, spirit and the truth of the blues is both uniquely impressive and what's needed in this world today."
