[@Badhands55]

[@TheBigAlberto]

[@gittheblue1]

RIP Nick, Love from the West Coast. Your Music will always live on!

[@JavierTijuana]

Love and Power to Nick’s Soul!

[@pichipachu]

Now these guys understand the concept of 'groove'! cool, funky and rockin' all at the same time... damn!

[@pat976]

I love his tone and his snappy style...

[@TheBigAlberto]

the drumer sound amaizing.... a really SHUFFLE KING!!!!!

[@AA1969]

Never heard anybody that could nail that early Jimmie Lee Vaughan vibe like that.

[@davestephens8033]

Except Jimmy Vaughan's style was a direct copy of a much much earlier black bluesman's style. I forgor the name of who it was.

[@arihautala224]

​@@davestephens8033 interesting ,, now who was it?

[@davestephens8033]

@@arihautala224 I don't remember, and it was some famous black blues guy not so commonly known. Wish I could remember but it was years ago. Nothing new though. SRV was a Hendrix clone and an Albert King clone.

[@karmadave]

Nick is great! Very melodic playing. Taste and tone over flash!

[@DirtyJohn71]

First song is good....but the second is VERY nice. Drummer shows he can play straight too. No BS here just heartfelt music. Refreshing isn't it?!......

[@crazygeorge53]

That tag on the guitar reminds me of Minnie Pearl. Yeah, good analogy Nick Curran is to the blues guitar what Minnie Pearl was to the old lady hillbilly hat. They both kick ass in their own way.

[@beenderedonedat]

Woah, this will be a rant... I'm just a fan, from Germany btw... To me Nick Curran personified the defeat of genre and someone who characterwise grew with the medium of the web 2.0... he grew into it. So, given that he a certain early age got bitten by the bug he most certainly spent countless hours checking out archaic clips, b-sides and what not. That is the good side of this medium, He blended, digested and transcended. checkout the plate on his guitar, style2themax. drummings perfect btw.

[@jlzify]

This is beyond awesome

[@tckalle]

He can play everything in his own way, look and hear his stuff from the 50`s.

[@JohnRocklin]

Godspeed Nick, R.I.P Brother

[@outjazzer]

Missed, always loved this clip

[@harryduck1]

some badass drumming right there!

[@fabioignesti4583]

Awesome

[@bogthing1]

Blues with the tag on! Shame I never got to see him, he had serious fire.

[@Gerk8]

This made me think of Duke Robillard.

[@cadetmouse]

There's a lot of Freddie King going on here.....RIP Nick..x

[@juddaustin399]

Even more anson funderburg...

[@wellooh]

Big Thanks for that ! Itsa real deal !!

[@Bornysblues]

Really great, great influences.

[@1960gal]

just found this clip! I love it. All its needs is Mr Kim himself putting some harp and vocals to it!

[@1960gal]

yeah. Sad that. Especially now Kirk has flown too. Sensed all wasn't right before the Southampton UK gig last July. Real shame. But still love KW!

[@lowPaycheck]

Correct.. MUCH like Freddie & Johnny Watson as well... he's the best under 25 y/o roots player in the world..... seriously.

[@EdurockerCultura]

R.I.P - My friend Nick ♫♪:=(

[@cboyproductions]

the guitar never sold on ebay! too bad!

[@arihautala224]

Was that strat hes' playing up for sale on ebay? ,, when was that and what was the asking price? Just curious. I would have bought it if i only knew😥 It really is a fantastic sounding strat Nicks' playing here.

[@44BX]

Who's the drummer?! Freakin' great! 44

[@evanfrmheaven]

good play and tone!

[@kapacon]

That's Minnie Pearl's hat tag on his guitar! I heard he got it on Ebay.

[@olympiabats4512]

Nick and I would leave the tags till they fell off. Like old school hip hop dudes from the 90s with their ball caps.

[@cboyproductions]

yeah man like a real blues drummer! check out fred below or sp leary.

[@SteveArvey]

who is this drummer? he is great!

[@olympiabats4512]

Alberto Telo!

[@cboyproductions]

yeah even though he is 29

[@cboyproductions]

more like freddie king and anson funderburg and jimmy reed!

[@lowPaycheck]

When i saw him in 2000, i thought he told me he was 17.... he sure didnt look 22 then... he looked 15... So we'll rename it the under 30 category then....

[@iceman273]

What's up with the tag on Nick's guitar. Did he just steal the guitar from a shop and ran into a show?

[@cboyproductions]

nick does not play in the t birds anymore

[@dutchomatic]

Hey didn't Ronnie James play with Little Charlie and the Nightcats? Nick rocks. Saw him with Ronnie Dawson in the mid 90's then saw him with Kim Lenz in '99...I believe...Superb musician all of them.

[@cboyproductions]

drummer albert telo

[@astamnes]

I`m not shure if he was born in the 50`s.. Nah!
