Nicole Atkins

I’m so happy to be bringing out my good buddy and Single Lock Records brother Caleb Elliott to open our UK and EU shows this April! You may have seen and heard Caleb playing with me on tour with The Wood Brothers or Dylan LeBlanc. He releases his first record this March and it is gorgeous and cool! We also added a Leeds show at the Brudenell Social Club for you guys that were askin! It’s a Monday I know but we’ll definitely give you a good reason to be a little sleepy for work on Tuesday. ⚡️🖤⚡️ Ticket link here >>> https://bit.ly/2S9nwcY

These little “Mermaids Of Mercy” are up for sale on my website. I’m making a new record right now so you might ask yourself, how does one pay the bills while not touring and doing shows? Well, I’m trying to keep the lights on with paint and prints because Oprah says to live your best life. That was Oprah right? 🖤 #illustrator #artforsale #mermaidsofmercy

I’ve been touring around in a van playing music since 2004 and I used to have a really hard time adjusting to some time off at home. I didn’t think I had a passion for anything else and couldn’t concentrate enough to do much more than go to a bar and talk shit about books and movies. I used to get a lot of anxiety. About a year after I quit drinking I made a little painting of a cat not thinking much about it but stoked that I could actually sit and enjoy doing something other than music for a few hours. Then I did it the next day and the next and yadda yadda. I got degree in illustration in 2001 and put it down for over 15 years not thinking I’d ever love it. Anyways, this is an extremely long winded post just to say how much I fucking love painting and drawing. I think it’s making me a better songwriter and performer as well. Thanks for taking this pic @watermrk from @seahearnow It’s Saturday, get off Instagram and go make a mess. 🖤

#tbt to me and @monomanq priming. #striving

Finishing writing my new record and @thayersarrano sends me this. Couldn’t be more true. It’s amazing what 10 years and a shift in perspective can do. #thetower art by @shebeartarot
