SIGN-UP TO THE MAILING LIST FOR THE LATEST EXCLUSIVES BEFORE ANYONE ELSE

   Nicolas Rivers is a singer/songwriter, rock musician out of Chicago, IL. Nick is a prolific songwriter. His creative abilities always carry him forward. For all the guitars and sonic landscapes at his core he considers himself a minstrel. Writing songs that are potent & powerful. Through all the hardships & challenges the best thing to come out of it is the songs.  
 

It's music meant to inspire, give hope, & be wild in the eyes on the world. A shot of adrenaline! He's a bit of a restless spirit. It comes down to what moves you & melody. It's as simple as that in end. From the big city of Chicago out into the Middle of Nowhere. Finishing a record with an ambitious nature in humble surroundings was intense and exactly what was needed. Exceeding every expectation. Endlessly Awaiting the Ethereal has been remixed, remastered, & re-imagined with a re-release scheduled later this year. The Existing oNE Arrives wherever and whenever it's time...
