Sam Nicholson writes anthemic folk-pop about the rush of youth and the ache of nostalgia. Born in Los Angeles and now based in Nashville, the USC Thornton graduate is a multi-instrumentalist and self-taught producer whose warm, cinematic sound draws on Vance Joy, Noah Kahan, and Coldplay. He has written and produced for Adam Melchor, Christian French, and Ryman Leon, and has played 25+ dates across North America in the past year — including headline runs through the Pacific Northwest and Mountain West. His single “Nothing Feels Like You” was featured on Apple Music’s Heartache.
