Bio
For the past half-century, Muscle Shoals, Alabama has produced some of the finest musicians of our day. From W.C. Handy to Percy Sledge and the immortal Muscle Shoals Rhythm Sections otherwise known as "The Swampers", Muscle Shoals has always been a hotbed of talent. Gary Nichols is the next in line of the great Muscle Shoals songwriting performers. Even though he is only 30 years old Gary has been playing professionally for nearly 20 years. As a teenager, Gary played with his uncle Larry Condrey, who subbed on gigs for the legendary Muscle Shoals guitar great Travis Wammack. In 2002, Gary helped create the first "FAME Tuesday Music Club", which consisted of bringing in young talent to develop their recording, performing and songwriting talents in the confines of historic FAME Studios. Gary took advantage of this opportunity to impress everyone at FAME with his work ethic and raw talent. In February of 2004, Gary signed a publishing deal with FAME Publishing Company. Since then his name has spread like wildfire through writing circles and the record labels of Nashville. Gary still lives in his hometown of Florence, AL and spends his time off there with his wife, Morgan, and his two children, Claire and Trey. From Muscle Shoals to Music Row, the talk is always the same, "Gary Nichols Rocks!" When the SteelDrivers came calling Gary threw his hat in the ring (and hasn't looked back). -
