	MiNI-BIO:	This Florida native started banging out tunes on the piano at age 4 and hasn't stopped since. Now twenty years wiser, this BMI songwriter comes equipped with fresh sounds, killer chops and the right attitude (and an endorsement from First Act Guitars as an "Up & Coming Regional Artist"). The thick web of textures in Nick's arrangements invite comparison to a wide variety of artists from Bruce Hornsby to James Taylor, and his influences range from Santana to Yes. Nick currently performs with his electric quartet, Nick Edelstein Band. He also writes for other artists, and composes for TV/film spots. On occasion, if the moon is full and Blue, you may catch Edelstein doing an acoustic show. Naturalist, spiritualist, environmentalist, his stylistic influences are vast but he always return to the Blues: "I'm all about creating the moment, so come see my band and contribute to the vibe!" Following the success of Edelstein's first LP, Ripple, album #2 is underway. Catch the fever and collide with Ripple today! The band << Nick Edelstein- vocals / guitars / piano, Monty Coursey- drums, Scott Brown- bass, Joe Hallar- guitars / vocals.


	REVIEWS/QUOTES:	"Georgia-based Blues rocker, guitarist, and singer/songwriter Edelstein plays straightforward Blues-touched rock and roll. The writing is strong while his band accents the classic guitar riffs on both rockers and ballads." * Creative Loafing - Charlotte, NC (June 2007) * "Nick matches immaculate phrasing and speed with soulful, tasteful melodies!" * Lexi Tabback, The Piedmont Review (Atlanta, GA) * "Tasteful Blues Rock is on the menu from Atlantan Nick Edelstein, whose album 'Ripple' features him tearing through tunes both bluesy and funky; there's a little Stevie Ray in there, some Hendrix and even a twinge of the Red Hot Chili Peppers from the rhythm section of Scott Brown on bass and Monty Coursey on drums." * Flagpole - Athens, GA (December 2006) * "4 stars! Nick gives us a sophisticated take on rock, while at the same time managing to leave a certain rawness still intact thereby giving the whole sound a greater depth of feeling than you generally expect from this approach . . ." * The BluesBunny (U.K.) * "Imagine if Skynyrd were starting up today — post Atlanta Rhythm Section, post Red Hot Chili Peppers. That's the feeling I get with Nick Edelstein. Songs like "Kentucky Sun" and "Tripping" are great live, under the sun with drink in hand. "Sign From Above" is old-school pop, like Styx or Kansas." * Southern Fried Magazine (May 2007) * "Pretty-boy presence ... coy-ish appeal ... a breath of fresh, understated sensuality. Nick obviously likes Rock, which adds a funky edge to his Blues expression ... I got a taste of Santana and even a little Van Halen. He's sneaky with it. Ladies, you'll have a hard time deciding whether to bake him some cookies or mess up his hair!" * Kim Frazier, Gophertunes.com *
