  • Biography (PDF)
    Johnny Nicholas Biography by Jacy Meador Nestled deep in the Texas Hill Country, just outside of Fredericksburg, you’ll find a former gas station turned restaurant & music venue named the Hill Top Café. A visit to this eclectic café gives a good idea of the worldly, yet down-home nature of Johnny Nicholas’ unique style. Built piece by piece, recipe by recipe, and song by song by Johnny Nicholas and his beloved late wife Brenda, the Hill Top Café is covered in music memorabilia and old photos from his nearly five decades of touring. The décor, home-cooked food, and tunes on the old jukebox give a glimpse into the vast melting pot of Americana that define not only the food at the Café, but the incomparable musical style of Johnny Nicholas. Often referred to as a ‘bluesman,’ to classify Johnny Nicholas as strictly a blues artist is quite a misnomer. Nicholas’ signature style of music might be better defined as deep roots music. His musical roots grow deep and wide – spanning the many musical traditions found across the country. Drawing from the wealth of musical influences found in areas such as Chicago, Louisiana and Texas – Nicholas’ original music stirs together elements of folk, blues, western-swing, jazz, Cajun and country. While his dexterity on the guitar, husky growl of a baritone, and talent on the 88’s make him well at home in the world of blues and jazz, Nicholas’ skill as a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and performer of authentic Americana music is not to be understated. Having written “the first song he was proud of” in the early 1970s at the encouragement of his friend and mentor Robert Lockwood Jr.

  • Johnny Nicholas Is One of the Best Bluesmen Ever, Black Or White
    “JOHNNY NICHOLAS IS ONE OF THE BEST BLUESMEN EVER, BLACK OR WHITE. ” ~ STEPHEN BRUTON When it comes to Americana Roots Music and especially the Blues, the late great Stephen Bruton knew what he was talking about. Those who knew him knew that he always got to the point. His description of his long time friend and musical comrade in arms is succinct and quite a heady compliment, but then, Johnny Nicholas is an amazing talent. For four decades Johnny’s consummate musicianship and vocal skills have graced live music scenes across the country and abroad. He has toured, performed and recorded with many true blues and Americana Roots Music legends including: Mississippi Fred McDowell, Robert Lockwood Jr., Johnny Shines, Big Walter Horton, Roosevelt Sykes, Nathan Abshire, Robert Pete Williams, Eddie Taylor, Billy Boy Arnold, Hound Dog Taylor, Johnny Young, Houston Stackhouse, and Boogie Woogie Red. He recorded and toured with Johnny Shines and Snooky Pryor, producing and playing guitar on their W.C. Handy Award-winning album Back to the Country. He was a lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist with Asleep at the Wheel when they won their first of many Grammy Awards. He gave Blues Guitar Icon Ronnie Earl his first gig in the now legendary band Guitar Johnny and the Rhythm Rockers. He has also shared the stage and performed with the likes of Howlin Wolf, BB King, Muddy Waters, Bonnie Rait, Eric Clapton, Pops and Mavis Staples, Delbert McClinton, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard,and Jimmie Vaughan among many others. He can wow a festival crowd of thousands or a small room of devotees.
