Different Drum - Nicole Atkins

at RED, Red Bank NJ 2-6-08...giving Mike Nesmith credit for writing the song and perhaps the ruination of the Monkees because of it!

I am astonished that Nicole persevered thru all that yakking going on in the background! This crowd was so rude! Nicole is a top national talent, (the nation needs to wake up to that!) and they were lucky to hear her perform! What a voice! Even having to do her own acoustic guitar backing here, the voice tells it all. Wow.

Chris Isaak is coming to Vegas next month. I hope he brings Nicole with him! She's never done Vegas that I know of.

Best Nicole? Letterman 10-30-07. See that!

Regarding your comment here - most of the people in attendance at this particular bar were Nicole's personal friends. It was a very small venue - and actually Nic had an awesome time, which totally shows in her performance. Trust me the respect I have for her and her talent knows no bounds.

I think that without question, she is one of the five or ten best current female singers. Her style and grace is flawless, and if you haven't seen her live, it is a must! She will just blow you away!

She is gifted with the most amazing voice, I was privilaged to see/hear her when she supported Regina Spektor on her recent (2010) tour in the UK. I'd love to get the chance again and can't wait for Mondo Amore to arrive from the US....GBR

In another place I just wrote about people's attempts to categorize or compare this fine singer, but I have been hearing Linda Ronstadt and Mama Cass in her. All of us stand on the shoulders of giants, I suppose.
