ATTN: ARTS & CULTURE EDITOR American Troubadour - WILLIAM JAMES NICHOLSON - will be appearing live on stage at Venue: __________________________________ Date: ________________ Time: ___________ Upstate New York's WILLIAM JAMES NICHOLSON is a uniquely American artist. Yes, he writes some of the most powerful modern folk songs of today, but he performs them armed only with a custom made 11-string harp-guitar. Despite all the virtuosity and musical knowledge, it is the song, the emotion and the storyteller's voice that always hold center stage. "It is refreshing to hear a great voice combined with a great song, played with passion, competence and honesty..." (Albany, NY) "When I saw the harp guitar I thought one thing, then when he opened his mouth to sing, something entirely suprising and beautiful happened..." (Marietta, OH) "A great voice, a potent emotional presence, and a tremendous musician..." (San Luis Obispo, CA) http://www.williamsongs.com
