St Ives Jazz Club : Nicolas Meier
Advance Booking is Closed Now. There will be Tickets on Sale On The Door this evening !
UK-based guitarist, Nicolas Meier, has carved a reputation out as one of the world's most original and uniquely talented guitarists.
Drawing from a love of Turkish, Eastern & Middle Eastern music, Flamenco, Tango and more -- all mixed with jazz -- Meier's versatility and musical fluency extends well beyond that, even.
Meier originally hails from Switzerland; born in 1973, to parents who are great lovers of the arts.
Never short on ambition, Meier founded his own record label, MGP Records, in 2009.
To date, he's produced twelve albums: as a solo artist; in various group formats (The Nicolas Meier Group; Nicolas Meier Trio; Eclectica!; Nicolas Meier World Group); with his heavy metal band, Seven7, and; in a duo format, with long-time partner, fellow guitarist and collaborator, the fabulous UK master, Pete Oxley.
Having made a lasting impression on gentlemen the likes of the great Bill Bruford, (the aforementioned) Jeff Beck and Steve Vai, Nicolas Meier is unquestionably one of today's most well-rounded, ambitious and masterful up-and-coming talents on guitar.
Stay tuned ... this is one star that is still on the rise!
