Loud As Folk presents Buffalo Nichols, a singer, songwriter, and blues guitar wizard described by The Guardian as “steeped in tradition but with an urgent, contemporary edge.” He brings an urgent, modern consciousness to the blues, performing music from his 2021 self-titled debut along with other selections. Raised in Milwaukee, the artist born Carl Nichols found early inspiration in the guitar, searching his family’s record collection for musical truth and developing his voice between local bars and the church, then further shaping his sound through soul-seeking travels in West Africa and Europe. Sacramento-based banjo phenom Dirty Laundry opens the show.

An optional Prismacolor colored pencil kit with 17 specific shades is available for $42.50 to mirror the palette shown in the sample.
