Nicolas Meier World Group

This gig is part of Nic’s 50th birthday celebrations, performing music from the new release by the World Group “Magnificent”. Nicolas Meier the UK-based guitarist has carved a reputation out as one of the world's most original and uniquely talented guitarists. Drawing from a love of Turkish, Eastern & Middle Eastern music, Flamenco, Tango and more -- all mixed with jazz -- Meier's versatility and musical fluency extends well beyond that. Meier originally hails from Switzerland; born in 1973, to parents who are great lovers of the arts. Never short on ambition, Meier founded his own record label, MGP Records, in 2009. To date, he's produced twelve albums: as a solo artist; in various group formats (The Nicolas Meier Group; Nicolas Meier Trio; Eclectica!; Nicolas Meier World Group); with his heavy metal band, Seven7, and; in a duo format, with long-time partner, fellow guitarist and collaborator, the fabulous UK master, Pete Oxley. (Their 2015 release, "Chasing Tales," was a masterful, benchmark album, in the dual-guitar format.) 

Line Up:  Nicolas Meier fretted and fretless guitars and Glissentar; Demi Garcia - percussion, Richard Jones- violin & Kevin Glasgow - bass
