Nick Edelstein Band

(Music industry)

August 2004 — Present (5 years)

Since beginning this project in 2004, I have secured 2 corporate endorsements and showcased many festivals - both national and regional. My stated genre is "Blues-Rock" and it refers to Blues-influenced Rock, Roots-Rock and Americana music.
For 4 years I booked, marketed and promoted all concerts. I also released two full-length records. In August 2008, all booking duties were handed over to Lesley Daunt of Unity Artist Management.
All songs are written and arranged by me, and licensed via BMI and Sibelius Music. ~Nick Edelstein

NESS Records, Inc.

(Music industry)

July 2004 — Present (5 years 1 month)

This began as a means to producing my first solo album. We released the studio LP "Ripple" in 2006 on CD format. A second album followed - "Live In 2007" - a compilation of live audio taken from our '07 Summer tour. Released in DPD format (online-only) on DiscRevolt.com/nick, we got an extremely positive review from Southeast Performer Magazine (May '07 issue).
Future ambitions include releasing more Nick Edelstein albums, providing tour support for Nick Edelstein Band, and signing additional artists.
