a powerful blend of complimentary genres that create something completely new and exploratory... pushing the edge of all confines... which happens to be exactly what you want to hear..
The nick cassarino trio, officially formed in 2009, plays primarily original experimental soul music. included in that genre are hints of gospel, the avante garde, bluegrass, blues, jazz, and funk. individually, each member has played nationally and internationally, but now they have come together as a tight unit to bring the music to the far reaches of the world. the mission of the nick cassarino trio is to bring an empowering inspiration and awareness to all people and to make strong waves in the musical, spiritual and political communities of the world.
Hey Nick. Wish I could've stuck around and talked with you a bit after your show last night, but I'm sure you were chatting it up with lots of folk anyway.
I just wanted to say that it was great to see you last week even if only momentarily.
AND your music is freaking amazing! Ha. And I thought you were good in 8th grade!
