You can hear the nurturing root sounds of American R&B, New Orleans Rock 'n' Roll, Country-Driven Gospel and the Soul Music of the Spirit and the Church in Nicholas David (aka "the Feelin”). And if you're really listening, you can hear how David is reshaping the music's past for the ever-present day. Welcome to the guy who magically turned the old school into the new school.
The soulful bearded songsmith known to the world in 2012 as he endured the intense scrutiny of hit-making judges and a major television audience during "The Voice". Finishing third that year, his riveting performances and his unassuming personal proclamations about faith, family and music--readily set him apart from the pack. He had arrived. Or maybe the big audience and the affirmation of key media he deserved finally caught up to him.
A Voice Beyond "The Voice". A Top-Three Finish catapulted David from regional musician to international success. His recordings routinely charted on Top 10 lists for Billboard and iTunes. David and his Feelin Band toured coast to coast headlining and playing support bills with national acts ranging from the Avett Brothers to Rusted Root to the BoDeans to name a few.
On the road he crossed paths with Devon Allman to which an onstage jam led to an invitation to join the Devon Allman Project on 2018 - 2019 World Tour! Among many notable musicians David met during the 14-month-long-trek across the globe was guitarist and singer Samantha Fish. That meeting led to an invitation to come to New Orleans and record David's latest release Yesterday's Gone.
