Growing Up with Music on Crete’s Cobblestone Streets 🎸
The Afro Nick draws on his experiences as a child growing up on Crete, a Greek island situated between the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. His earliest musical memories were of gypsies playing their guitars for coins on the Venetian cobblestone streets. In 2009 he formed “Stray Blue” and toured throughout Crete, premiering one of the first IndieRock band tours on the island. His true audiences are the disenfranchised and marginalized, those who “don’t really fit within the normal flow of society, those who seek music as an outlet.” Now based in LA, California, he offers audiences the chance to experience his Indie-Rock sound and stirring lyrics, expressed with breathless urgency—offering broad appeal through a uniquely distinctive sound.
Forming Stray Blue and touring Crete, playing festivals and theaters was quite out of the ordinary at the time in Crete. The synth player, Leonardo Genovese, is a Grammy winning musician, and he is currently touring top venues around the world. Leo and Nick originally met in New York and performed together in local bars and clubs. Nowadays, when Leo visits Nick in LA, the pair craft more original songs and record synths and piano together. The band will basically form with the upcoming single release on Nov 22 2024, planning more releases soon and aiming a small tour in 2025.
