Nick Waterhouse hits Lee's Palace, Sunday

Nick Waterhouse returns to Toronto to present songs from his latest album, The Fooler at Lee's Palace on Sunday night. 

Here's the scoop on The Fooler...

The title of the sixth album from Californian singer-songwriter Nick Waterhouse is more than just the name of one of its tracks. The Fooler is both a clue and a red herring. The Fooler is the observed and the observer, narrator and subject, truth and lie. The Fooler is the shadow and reflection of a city the artist knows sufficiently well to wander with his eyes closed, and a place which very possibly never even existed. The Fooler is not so much an unreliable narrator as a constantly shifting perspective.

The Fooler is the new album by Nick Waterhouse, and it’s a lot. Recorded by Mark Neill (Black Keys; Los Straightjackets; Dave Cobb) in Valdosta, Georgia, it’s a song-cycle of sorts, the arc of the album telling a tale of a city and its denizens. “Many of the stories come from a feeling of plasticity,” says Waterhouse. “What is memory? What is time? What is love between two human beings like in this imaginary city? A phase shift occurred writing this record. I had a breakthrough in how to tell stories in songs, like an epiphany. I started realising how I could bend time in a lot of the things that weave through the record. I have a perspective as a narrator now, instead of being the occupant of the songs.”

Waterhouse released his debut album, Time’s All Gone, in 2012. His last record, Promenade Blue, came out in 2021. In his music you will hear echoes of things you might think you know, or believe you remember, filtered through the lens of a unique artistic perspective. You will hear rhythm and blues, garage rock, radio soul and wee-small-hours balladry – but reconfigured, made new. In Waterhouse’s music, the time is both now and then. The past is the present is the future. The sound is classic yet unclassifiable.

The Fooler was produced by Neill in his Soil of the South studio in Valdosta, Georgia. A former room in a ballet school, Soil of the South is in the great tradition of American studios such as Chess and Sun. “Not the place that looks like a spaceship, more like the place that looks like a dentist office in 1965,” says Waterhouse. They tracked the album fast near the end of 2021. A further handful of days for overdubs and mixing early in 2022 and it was finished. “Making this record was like going to see the kung fu master on the mountain,” says Waterhouse. “You can probably draw a through line from my first record to this one, but this is something else entirely. The sonic landscape Mark designed is so much further into space, with reverb and depth.”

The result is a record that offers up new riches and fresh perspectives with every spin. From the hidden corners of ‘Hide & Seek’ and the roadhouse soul of ‘Play To Win’ to the primitive, attitudinal, chugging two-chord thrill of ‘Late In The Garden’, it builds inexorably to the drama of the title track and pulsing roll-and-rock of the final pay off, ‘Unreal, Immaterial’. Play it once and it sounds immediately like a collection of great songs. Play it again – and you will – and it feels like a novel or film slowly unveiling its secrets, kaleidoscopic in its narrative complexity. “Especially during this record, I started just becoming what Allen Ginsberg called a pure breath,” says the artist. “I was becoming pure breath with my ideas.”

One For The Weekend: Nick Waterhouse

Check out "Very Blue" off Nick Waterhouse's forthcoming Promenade Blue album due April 9th from Innovative Leisure.  

Here's the scoop on Nick's new single "Very Blue" b/w "Medicine"...

A very special Valentine's release from Nick Waterhouse that was recorded in Memphis & Co-Produced by Paul Butler (Michael Kiwanuka, Devendra Banhart) featuring two agape-style love songs that capture Waterhouse’s relentless spirit and mesmerizing brand of jittering, crystalline doo wop, jazz and blues alongside a weeping string arrangement from JB Flatt best known for his work with Eli "Paperboy" Reed. Lower-than-low gospel chants and refrains by The Sensational Barnes Brothers lend both energy and emotional weight, conjuring a whole new mythic world for Nick’s compositions. Watch the video for "Very Blue" below. 
 

Nick Waterhouse previews new Promenade Blue album with "Place Names"

Listen to "Place Names" off the forthcoming Nick Waterhouse album Promendade Blue set for release April 9th.

Here's the scoop...

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby was a work so filled with ambition, yearning, and inner contradictions that it came to represent the condition of a nation itself. Yet, at its core, the slim novel tells a story about people and, more often than not, their inability to communicate and connect with one another — forever running on parallel tracks until tragedy finally twines them together. The color green (often in the form of the faded sodium lit dock of Daisy Buchanan) comes to represent longing and unrequited love in an era (the Roaring Twenties) of decadence and spiritual vacuousness. Green is Gatsby’s North Star, simultaneously pointing backward and forward through time toward some unattainable, impossibly balanced version of his own life. 

Nick Waterhouse, a century later but once again in the ’20s, takes the color blue as his hue of choice on Promenade Blue (out April 9). In Nick’s musical and lyrical world, blue is a refraction of his life and memories — shadowing a deep, spiritual San Francisco that fostered his musical vocabulary but has now been stamped out irrevocably; evoking the endless tours, marathon recording sessions, and highs and lows of success he’s experienced in his decade-long career; conjuring romances that were doomed, loves that lingered, and hope for future days of parity and partnership; summoning spirits of people who have gone but permeate his mind forever. 

That’s the world of Promenade Blue — one that is vivid and magnetic, buoyed by both light and density due to Nick’s newfound collaboration with producer Paul Butler (Michael Kiwanuka, Devendra Banhart). It’s not Gatsby’s New York in the 1920s, it’s Waterhouse’s California in the 2020s. Nick makes that crystal clear throughout the record but particularly on “Santa Ana (1986),” where he wryly sings, “Not from New York / And I never was / I’m from California.” With that, he answers all questions about place and setting…but as anyone who’s ever listened to a Waterhouse record knows: time, though clearly pegged to the dawn of this new decade, is a more malleable concept. Where he is is clear. When he is varies. 

We can try as hard as we can to make sense of Promenade Blue, but in reality, context isn’t really needed because the music on the album is so damn magnificent. In no uncertain terms, it represents Waterhouse’s finest hour as a writer and bandleader — leveraging the musical partnerships he has built over many years to put something forth that is so fully realized and felt that it sparkles beatifically, reverberating with energy, heart, creativity, and vibe from start to finish. Nowhere is this more evident than on the album’s opening track, “Place Names,” perhaps the most remarkable song in the Waterhouse catalogue. 

The tune is a pocket symphony, à la Spector and Wilson, with winding piano lines locking puzzle-like into a whining, weeping string arrangement courtesy of musical blood brother J.B. Flatt. A small cadre of women backing vocalists shout “Never!” and Nick replies “I never cry on cold days / I never mind a trip on the freeway / Because it’s what I know / Never really set for the big change / Learn to let things go / And say blow wind, blow.” The freeways between LA and San Francisco; the memory of spending a teenaged evening in the Vesuvio Café, which looms over the entrance of City Lights Books; the wind ripping through you on a foggy Bay Area morning, cutting into your bones; the pride one takes in his hometown; the distinct life that he has made (or that has made him) — it’s all here in “Place Names” and, honestly, if the album were to end with this one song, Waterhouse would’ve done his service to the 2020s in terms of musical creativity and vitality. Thankfully for listeners, it’s just the beginning. 

The album twists and turns from the opening to the close — from swinging, sashaying jazz and blues (“Spanish Look”) to jittering, crystalline doo wop (“Very Blue”) and pure, loose, languid mood music with just a hint of Mulatu Astatke’s Ethiopian modal magic (“Promène Blue”). Most striking, perhaps, is the use of men’s voices as a backing texture, bringing an unexpected thematic unity to many of the songs. Lower-than-low gospel chants and refrains lend both energy and emotional weight to these pieces, conjuring a whole new mythic world for Nick’s compositions. This is a statement album, one to get lost in and rediscover over and over again. 

In the Waterhouse catalogue, “Promenade Blue” represents rebirth and reinvigoration as well as a clarity of purpose that elevates it and may one day set it apart as something resembling a magnum opus. It’s his ‘Gatsby’ and it’s also his way of reintroducing himself to a fanbase that has grown by leaps and bounds over the last couple of years. On this record, he paints a mythic picture of his own life — lost in confusion, grating against time, overheated by false memories, being baptized by nostalgia and a vision of the future that is paradoxically both dark and apocalyptic and sparkling with promise. Sounds a lot like America in the 20s to me. Which 20s though?

Nick Waterhouse releases rockin' Live at Pappy and Harriet's 2LP

Check out "Katchi" and "I Feel An Urge Coming On" and "Some Place" from Nick's new double live album.

Here's the scoop...

A decade ago, journalists, fans, critics, and audiophiles alike were wont to compare Nick Waterhouse to his predecessors. And it was a convenient way to categorize an artist that has since proved uncategorizable—he had a voice that balanced somewhere between Van Morrison and Ray Charles, an aesthetic that caught the attention of style reporters at GQ, an ambitious production vision that stood out among the lo-fi rock and alternative bands of the zeitgeist. And he was disarmingly earnest in his own influences—citing artists like Mose Allison and Them as early inspiration. But now, coming off of his searching, intimate, self-titled album of 2019 and bringing us Nick Waterhouse – Live at Pappy & Harriet’s: In Person from the High Desert in 2020, it’s clear that comparisons, of any kind, no longer suffice. 

After self-releasing his debut single “Some Place” in 2010, Nick Waterhouse and his backing band, The Tarots, along with three back-up singers, The Naturelles, quickly caught the attention of then-nascent, Los Angeles record label Innovative Leisure. Released by Innovative Leisure in 2012, Waterhouse’s debut album, “Time’s All Gone,” was an incredibly ambitious record. Full band, three back-up vocalists, careful and intricate arrangements, a studied balance of light and dark, thoughtful decisions on everything from studio to album art: Waterhouse had vision. 

While Waterhouse continued to release records at a steady clip—“Holly” in 2014, “Never Twice” in 2016, the self-titled “Nick Waterhouse” in 2019, and now “Live at Pappy & Harriet’s”—he extended his vision beyond his own act, collaborating with friends like garage-rock mystic Ty Segall and retro-futurist R&B bandleader Leon Bridges. He meticulously produced the successful debut and sophomore albums of long-time friends the Allah-Lahs, whom he met after moving from southern California to San Francisco, fortifying his musical education by selling vinyl in the Lower Haight. There is a “Waterhouse Sound” and it’s resonant in both his own records and his collaborations, rooted both in the man and the method — recording everything on magnetic tape, through analog equipment, and playing live, eyeball to eyeball, whenever possible. 

Though Waterhouse’s artistic practice has remained thoughtful and deliberate, it’s also proved adaptable. As his career grew to encompass a consistent schedule of national and international touring, producing, co-writing, and working with legendary elders like Ira Raibon, Maxine Brown, and Ralph Carney, the story of Waterhouse’s musical arc can be tracked through the sounds and arrangements on each record. From the magical, youthful ambition of “Time’s All Gone” to the more reflective and existentially fraught “Nick Waterhouse”—it all tells a story. 

The breadth and pace of his output is also evidence of the fact that however stylishly he may do it, Nick Waterhouse works. Hard. “Nick Waterhouse Live at Pappy & Harriet’s” came immediately after a long and intense string of European tour dates, which came immediately after a certain reckoning that most musicians encounter at some point, or several points, in their careers: a point where Nick Waterhouse, whose artistry and musicality evokes a blistering energy and drive, was questioning the whole thing—the shows, the exhaustion, the money, the will. 

It turned out that the excitement and momentum that fueled the 2019 European tour answered those questions in the resounding positive. And “Live at Pappy & Harriet’s” reflects the work of an artist who has seen some things. He’s studied, he’s composed, he’s receptive, he’s loose, and he’s gotten to know his own artistic practice in a way that shows up, fiery and raw, on this live, hometown record. 

Because ultimately, Nick Waterhouse is not simply in dialogue with others. He hasn’t responded to a revived appetite for neo R&B or Ronson-type pop production by altering his vision. He has remained, resoundingly, Nick Waterhouse. Whatever growth, transformations, or nuances a listener can hear are entirely his own story. Waterhouse has built his own sonic world, one whose orbit is totally unique. That sonic world is rich and complex; its language is intelligent, clever, and vulnerable; it’s at once ambitious and intimate, groovy and deeply serious. 

In fact, the Waterhouse sonic world might look a lot like a glimmering desert sky at dusk, or the damp, overheated air that awaits through the doors of Pappy & Harriet’s. And now we’re invited in. 

Live at Pappy and Harriet's is available on vinyl right here. Listen to three tracks below.

Nick Waterhouse @ The Horseshoe, May 10

Nick Waterhouse presents songs from his new self-titled album at The Horseshoe as part of CMW on May 10th.

Nick Waterhouse's self-titled fourth album (out now) bridges the gap between Rock n' Roll & Waterhouse's signature take on Rhythm & Blues. Produced by Paul Butler (Michael Kiwanuka, Devendra Banhart) & featuring a talented cast of session players; Bart Davenport, Flying Lotus collaborator Andres Renteria, flutist Ricky Washington (father of renowned saxophonist Kamasi Washington), and sax players Paula Henderson (Gogol Bordello) and Mando Dorame (JD McPherson). This is Waterhouse's most refined & unhinged work to date.



Listen to "Black Glass" and "I Feel An Urge Coming On" followed by a list of upcoming tour dates.

New album from Nick Waterhouse on the way – Toronto show in May

"Song For Winners" is off Nick's new self-titled album. Tour dates following his set from the Nelsonville Music Fest. 

More raw, heavy and overtly confrontational than anything he’s made before, Nick's forthcoming self-titled album (due March 8 on Innovative Leisure) was recorded in Hollywood, California at Electro Vox Recorders – the last surviving ‘Golden Era” 50’s style footprint a la Gold Star, Master Recorders, et al. The 11-track LP was cut with a gang of new faces and recurring true believers and co-produced by Paul Butler.

Nick’s songs here are personal, but personal in the way that “Please Mr. Postman,” “What’s Going On” and “Cathy’s Clown” are — intimate, direct, yet still malleable enough for listeners to suffuse their own life stories into the mix. “Adapt or die",” Nick wails, sardonically, on crime-jazz blitz “Black Glass”, telling you all you need to know about his process.

Check out "Song For Winners" (below) which has an opening lick that echoes Joe Moretti's memorable riff from Johnny Kidd and the Pirates' "Shakin' All Over."

Nick Waterhouse demonstrates that Ty Segall's "It #3" works quite nicely as an R&B swinger. 

New York Night Train's Soul Clap and Dance Off 10th Anniversary @ Warsaw, March 3

On March 3rd, DJ Jonathan Toubin will celebrate the tenth anniversary of the world’s most popular and prolific soul party, New York Night Train's Soul Clap and Dance-Off.

For the first time, Toubin turns the typical DJ night on its head, and won't spin any records. Instead, New York Night Train’s soul proprietor will fly in his favorite soul singers from around the world to perform their original hits for an all live music dance party. The fast-paced review setting will be backed by Nick Waterhouse and the Tarots. The performers will be flown in for the night only, some of whom have not performed in New York City for years, including Ural Thomas whose last performance in the city took place in 1971 at the Apollo Theater.

In addition to this unprecedented live bill of legends, the Soul Clap and Dance-Off as usual includes the New York Night Train Shadow Dancers, a dance contest with a $500 Prize, determined by a distinguished panel of judges. The contestants will have the unique chance to dance to a band whose records Toubin often plays at the contest, Joe Bataan and his orchestra, performing live.

The celebration will take place at Warsaw (261 Driggs Ave) in Brooklyn, across the street from Enid’s, the venue where the legendary party debuted on a cold March night in 2007. Tickets are $30 US advance and available right here.

With the help of celebrated music archivist/impressario/DJ Todd Abramson, Nick Waterhouse and the Ponderosa Stomp Foundation, Toubin assembled an unbelievable mix of legendary entertainers across soul subgenres, eras, and geographic locations:

Irma Thomas
Initially known outside of soul circles for the Rolling Stones’ cover of her “Time Is On My Side” and Otis Redding’s version of her “Ruler of My Heart” (“Pain In My Heart”), the Grammy-winning “Soul Queen of New Orleans” has prolifically recorded and released stellar music for six decades and is universally acclaimed as one of the genre’s paramount voices. Her hits “Anyone Who Knows What Love Is,” “Breakaway,” and “It’s Raining” have had a huge resurgence in recent years and are now a bigger part of popular culture than ever.

Archie Bell
The dynamic showman Archie Bell will forever be remembered for topping the charts in 1968 with his all-time get-down classic “Tighten Up” and  the follow up all-time floor fillers “(There’s Gonna Be) A Showdown” and “I Can’t Stop Dancing.”

Joe Bataan
Combining doo wop, soul, salsa, and the a variety of spicy sonic influences, Spanish Harlem’s own “King of New York” went from being one of the most unique and important figures in the latin soul to experimenting with orchestral funk, rap, and world rhythms. Bataan will bring along his razor sharp orchestra to play their fiery canonical 1960s boogaloos during the contest.

Maxine Brown
Twenty-year-old gospel songbird Maxine Brown busted the pop charts open in 1961 with her self-penned secular mega-hit “All In My Mind”. Over the next decade Brown became one of soul music’s most consistent artists – hitting the R&B charts both alone and as a part of a duo with Chuck Jackson.

Young Jessie
Originally part of the groundbreaking west coast doo wop group The Flairs (with Richard Berry), the 17-year old baritone was signed by Leiber and Stoller to a solo contract, helping him to quickly wax a slew of classics including the original recordings of much covered-standards like “Mary Lou” and “I Smell A Rat.” Young Jessie wound up in The Coasters (hear him on "Searchin'" and "Young Blood") and then went on to record a number of the finest and most coveted early soul 45s of all time.

Baby Washington
Starting out as a teen doo-wopper in The Hearts/Jaynetts, Jeanette “Baby” Washington went on to record a slew of R&B hits from the rockin’ 1950s to the sexy 1970s. A major influence on Dusty Springfield, who recorded "That's How Heartaches Are Made" and "I Can't Wait Until I See My Baby's Face," Washington’s 1960s Sue Records classics have become big hits in the contemporary Northern Soul, Popcorn, and Rhythm and Blues dance party scenes.

Ural Thomas
Portland, OR’s Ural Thomas, whose name in music was kept alive by soul heavies, collectors, and DJs playing his 60s singles like “Pain Is The Name of Your Game” and “Can You Dig It,” recently made a huge come back with an LP on Light In The Attic and full capacity live shows, up and down the West Coast. This underdog soul hero is excited to play his first New York gig since The Apollo in 1971.

David Johansen
NYC’s own Lonely Planet Boy broke into music as the leader of proto-punk gods The New York Dolls. He has had a prolific “Funky But Chic” solo career, became an international pop and film star as Buster Poindexter, and led the old weird American supergroup The Harry Smiths. For decades - from the Dolls’ cover of Archie Bell’s “There’s Gonna Be A Showdown” to his solo version of The Four Tops’ “Reach Out (I’ll Be There),” and to Buster Poindexter’s take on Freddie Scott’s “Are You Lonely for Me Baby” - Johansen has knocked ‘em all dead with his soulful originals and unique interpretations of standards.

King Khan
Canadian Berliner King Khan is best known for his flamboyant showmanship as the leader of nine-piece psychedelic soul combo King Khan and The Shrines.  “Black Snake” also remains busy with an eclectic variety of important musical projects like raw rootsy rockers King Khan and the BBQ, garage punks Almighty Defenders, and Bollywood revisionists Tandoori Knights. Last year saw King Khan release a series of funky soul singles recorded for the soundtrack to the black power The Defenders documentary.

Nick Waterhouse and the Tarots
Since taking the underground rhythm and blues scene by storm with his self-released 2010 single “Some Place,” Nick Waterhouse has gone on to become one of the busiest and most distinctive forces in the 21st Century Neo-Soul scene. Not only does he prolifically tours and records his own music, he also produced garage rockers The Allah-Las, latin soul combo The Boogaloo Assassins, and the classic soul man Ural Thomas, while also collaborating with Jon Batiste and Leon Bridges. IN addition to playing his own material during this special night, Nick will lead the backing band including his pianist Brooklyn Rhythm’s own J.B. Flatt, who has backed dozens of contemporary soul artists at the Dig Deeper party and elsewhere.
