Nick Ward is from a tiny seaside town on the South coast of Wales and his surroundings strongly influence his songwriting. Indulging in essentially British musical observations and New Wave culture, Nick Ward`s connection with Sixties Soul, Britpop, Mod Revival and radio friendly Indie is all apparent after just a few listens. Include a healthy dose of Costello, Ray Davies, Weller and Bacarach, and modern guitar based song writing is in very safe hands.
