Nicholas David is thrilled to announce the release of his new album, More Than Music, out October 3rd. This heartfelt collection of original songs captures his soulful artistry and personal evolution, marking his second full-length project since placing third on The Voice in 2012. The album reflects a transformative journey through loss, resilience, and rediscovery—both personally and musically.
Born and raised in Minnesota, a state steeped in musical legacy from icons like Bob Dylan and Prince, Nicholas channels the raw emotion of Southern soul while staying grounded in his Midwestern roots. More Than Music stands as a testament to his growth as an artist and a man, weaving together themes of love, grief, and hope with deeply moving melodies.
“This is my first record since a series of personal losses — both for me and my guitarist Dylan Nau,” Nicholas shares. “In between life and death, there’s more than music, and that’s a fitting title for this new record.”
Self-produced primarily at Daydream Studios, the album features twelve original tracks that blend soul, country, and gospel influences. Songs like “United” and “St. OG” showcase Nicholas’s ability to turn pain into powerful, healing art. “A lot of good art comes through pain, and I’ve learned to embrace it,” he says.
From the polka rhythms played by his grandfather to the soul and rock harmonies that filled his childhood home, Nicholas’s passion for music has always been a driving force. Through years of mentorship and experience, he’s honed a sound that’s both timeless and true to himself.
With More Than Music, Nicholas David invites listeners to truly experience his journey. “I hope people will feel this album — it’s me naturally doing what I do best: making music for the heart from the heart,” he smiles.
