"An absolutely amazing drummer. DAMN AM I GLAD I MADE THAT CALL!!" - Aaron Beavers, Shurman

"Nick is a consummate professional, and a true music lover. He does his homework like no drummer i've ever worked with. He knows the songs inside and out. Backwards and forwards. Nick is a great person to have as a rudder for the band. He is someone you can count on, hands down, to do the job right. His time is impeccable, and he has a power and an energy that drives and moves the songs and the band." - Matt Nathanson, Vanguard recording artist

"Nick absolutely rocks! He came in and knew my songs as well as my usual drummer, fit right in with his positive, do-it-right attitude, and was so encouraging about the music. His genuine enthusiasm is infectious and would be such an asset to any band or songwriter." - Elyse Haren, singer/songwriter

"I've had the pleasure of working with Nick on two projects which are stylistically quite different from each other. He has a great understanding of how to approach a song, and can lay back in the pocket or come out firing with all kinds of chops. His versatility makes him a great asset for recording artists looking to bring their songs into fruition, or for anyone who needs a solid, precise backbone to their project(s)." - Omarr Escoffie, Slow Car Crash

"It's a pleasure playing with Nick. He brought a much-needed power, professionalism, and reliability to the live show that allowed us to elevate the whole performance. The fact that he can launch into anything from Pat Benatar to Slayer to The Outfield without missing a beat doesn't hurt, either." - Aaron Tap, Matt Nathanson, The Paula Kelley Orchestra

"Nick has such an amazing grasp of where a song can and should go, not just rhythmically or dynamically, but melodically, harmonically, and sonically overall." - Shane Mills, One Silver Astronaut

"I grew up a drummer, so I'm very picky. I picked the right one in Nick Amoroso. Powerful, creative and 'on' like a metronome. He serves the song instead of taking away from it - combining the best qualities of John Bonham and Ringo Starr. Perfect for singer-songwriters." - Bryan Master, singer/songwriter

"Nick Amoroso is solid, tasteful, and really plays for the sake of the song. Great drummer AND a great guy!" - Kelly Burgos, singer/songwriter

"It feels very natural playing with Nick. His professionalism and charisma should be an example to other musicians looking to get into this business." - Dillon Campbell, singer/songwriter

"Nick is one of those rare drummers who can play with sensitivity and power simultaneously. Completing the song - not competing with it - is his goal and he does just that." - Steve LeBlanc, A Fine Frenzy

"Nick Amoroso has the key ingredients for a musician - he listens & follows the vocals & melody, complimenting the song in the best way possible. He is the finest drummer I have played with. Impeccable time, great dynamics - a professional in the truest sense of the word. As a performer you can rely on him to be the solid backbone, so you can focus on your performance - what a delight!" - Noush Skaugen, singer/songwriter

"Nick is simply one of the best drummers I have ever worked with. His sense of feel is incredible. He just seems to intuitively know what will work for any given song. He also seems to command time from behind his kit - he bends it to meet his needs." - Jac Mandel, guitarist, writer, producer

"Simply put, Amoroso's a powerhouse." - Music Connection magazine
