Guitarist, songwriter, Atlanta, GA-based.

Guitarist Nick Johnson, a Boston area native, relocated to Atlanta shortly after graduating from high school. Anxious to immerse himself in the South's culture and musical traditions, Nick quickly became a fixture on the local and regional music scene serving as touring and recording guitarist for Col. Bruce Hampton, Yonrico Scott Band, The Atlanta Funk Society, Last Waltz Ensemble, and others. He has enjoyed performances with musical titans such as Chuck Leavell, Bernard Purdie, Fred Wesley and Jabo Starks (of the James Brown Band), George Porter Jr, Grant Green Jr. and many more.

Nick can also be found as a mainstay in the band of acclaimed songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Randall Bramblett. With Nick as a member, the Bramblett band recently completed their first tour of Europe and has also had the opportunity to open for Bonnie Raitt, Steve Winwood, and others. Nick can be heard on Bramblett's albums the Bright Spots, and Devil Music (featuring guest appearances by Mark Knopfler, Derek Trucks and Chuck Leavell).
