Liederkranz Live: Nick Andrew Staver

A working class soul.
A ten pound steel guitar.
A voice dripping of nostalgia.

Writing and recording as a solo artist since 2014 has led to the release of albums including Medicine (2020), Live. In House (2021) and recent studio release, Rust Don’t Shine.

Every live performance exposes parallels between his personal journey and the American experience, no matter the size of stage.
​Each song, a story to further develop the focus on the benefits and struggles that come with small town rural life.
