UK-based guitarist and former member of The Jeff Beck Group, Nicolas Meier has carved a reputation out as one of the world's most original and uniquely talented guitarists.
Drawing from a love of Turkish, Eastern & Middle Eastern music, rock, flamenco and tango, Meier's versatility and musical fluency extends well beyond that even.
Swiss-born Meier has to date produced twelve albums as a solo artist and in various group formats with his 2017 album “Infinity” released by Steve Vai’s Favored Nations Records being a particular breakthrough.
He has toured relentlessly for the last 10 years or so with his 11 dates opening for Steve Vai in support of his album “Magnificent” being a particular highlight. He plays The Bear Club with his World Group comprising: Richard Jones on violin, Tom Mason on acoustic bass, Mike Horne on drums and Nicolas Meier on fretted and fretless guitar and glissentar.
“Meier’s scintillating playing on assorted fretted and fretless guitars is sometimes reminiscent of Metheny or McLaughlin but with a highly melodic, pan-Mediterranean eclecticism of his own.”
“…proves he still has plenty of fresh ideas up his sleeve, and his music remains as captivating and emotional as ever. This album is not only a reminder of his time with Jeff Beck, but above all proof that Meier’s creativity and imagination know no bounds!”
