Artist Bio

More about nicky

Hailing from the Blacklands Prairie of Texas, Nicky Diamonds' songwriting style is rooted in memories of an America that once was. He's keeping the blues alive by pulling inspiration from old hymn books, recounting the stories of his ancestors and adding a captivating twist to the tales and tunes of our people.

Nicky spends most of his time touring the country with his 96 year old Dobro and occasionally with his band 'The Deepcuts'. If you're lucky enough you'll catch Nicky at a Juke Joint close to home. His live show is a sight to see and you'll leave with a groove stuck in your bones.
