Nicolas Meier World Trio


  • St Giles Church Camberwell Church Street London, England, SE5 United Kingdom (map)

Featuring Kevin Glasgow on bass, Demi Garcia on percussion, Nicolas Meier on acoustic fretless and fretted guitar and Glissentar.

UK-based guitarist 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, Flamenco, Tango and more -- all mixed with jazz -- Meier's versatility and musical fluency extends well beyond that. So much so, that his considerable talents drew the attention of rock guitar legend, Jeff Beck, who made Nicolas a mainstay in The Jeff Beck Group -- carrying him on two world tours during the course of the last several years.

In fact, Meier is one of the rare musicians who plays both metal and jazz fluently, and has written books on both. When asked about his two seemingly divergent loves, Nicolas had this to say:

"I deeply love both styles. There is a magic in each style that the other one doesn’t have. I just love metal’s power and energy, and at the same time I love jazz’s deep emotion. Both styles can give high energy, but in different directions or different worlds."
