about

Clovis Nicolas is a jazz bass player and composer currently living in New York City, who recently graduated from the Juilliard School. His warm, precise and tasteful bass playing gained him a solid reputation on the international scene, which led to performances with artists such as Peter Bernstein, Herbie Hancock, Kenny Washington, Brad Mehldau, Harry Allen, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Curtis Fuller. Parallel to his sideman activities, Clovis is also a band leader and recently recorded his debut album “Nine Stories” for the label Sunnyside. “You will hear, from Mr. Nicolas, well thought out bass lines that spur the band in the direction that he wants them to go [...] A very, very good bass sound.” - Ron Carter User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
