The Nicolas Meier World Group
Wednesday 26th February 2025
One of the Spin’s most popular – and certainly most virtuosic – guests returns to The Spin with his outstanding band: Nicolas Meier! His ‘World Group’ has a unique sound, incorporating a meld of Middle Eastern, Turkish, jazz and fusion influences. Meier has had a glittering career, including three years of touring with Jeff Beck and subsequent recordings with Yellowjackets bassist, Jimmy Haslip and Sting/Zappa/everybody! drummer, Vinnie Collaiuta!
The World Group offers a massive range of colours: Nick himself plays various types of guitar (including his masterly work on the fretless and the fretless 11-string!), and the group benefits from the rich sonorities of Richard Jones’ electric violin and the keyboard wizardry of Alex Hutton. Completing the band is the super-versatile bassist, Tom Mason (Gwilym Simcock, Anoushka Shankar, Jamie Cullum, Lily Allen etc.) and the outrageously talented percussionist, Demi Garcia-Sabat!
Nick never fails to woo and wow an audience; this will be fabulous fare, and will be a gig that will sell out quickly. So really folks... BOOK NOW!!!
