Last month, I had the opportunity to interview thumb guitar virtuoso Jared James Nichols for the Aquarium Sessions, an initiative of Gitarist magazine. Nichols had drawn my attention with his debut album ‘Old Glory & The Wild Revival’, initially with the cool blues rock vibe of his song material, but I later find out he had a rather interesting right hand technique that is closer to fingerstyle than anything else really. The result can now be seen on the YouTube channel of the Aquarium Sessions. Definitely worth seeing if you want to know more about Nichols’ signature Blackstar amplifier, his Epiphone Old Glory or his playing technique.
