'Second Time Around' (released 13th October) is an anthology of ten blues, country / modern Dixie and jazz tracks all delivered in Nell's sassy and vibrant yet elegant and sexy style. A woman of many musical talents, she not only writes and sings but also plays electric, acoustic and twelve string guitars as well as the dobro and cello on the record.
Renowned for her live shows, Nell has already supported KT Tunstall and lined up opening slots for the Counting Crows this July. Also famous for her vocal ability, she has a reputation for entertaining with a playful rock `n roll lure yet still warming even the coldest of hearts.
Blessed with roughhewn, down-home vocals that hark back to when rhythm and blues repped for both components, Noel Gourdin's influences range from hip-hop to gospel and songs that are nakedly emotional and truthful. Noel Gourdin states his case on his refreshingly heartfelt debut CD, 'After My Time', coming soon. Watch the video for hit single 'The River'.
How worthy are the poor and the oppressed people in the eyes of national and international communities? This is the main question of this book, which presents the despair of the population of the third world countries, who endlessly cry their sorrows so that meaningful international attention would be granted to them.
