Teale Appeal - Soulful Storyteller Nick Teale and Company

Born in Kentucky to a British expat, Nick Teale combines the soulful storytelling of classic Americana with the compositional and experimental mentality of British art-rock. Although primarily a solo acoustic artist, Teale also has a full band, in both cases tackling everything from folk and Americana to rock, metal, blues, jazz, and hip-hop. Teale’s eclectic musical palate is the culmination of a life rich in musical experiences–from his parents’ CDs of Handel, Pat Metheny, Lucinda Williams, and the Clash to his high school obsession with Led Zeppelin and prog rock, all the way through to his forays into Middle Eastern music as a grad student at UT-Austin. Teale’s music has been featured in publications from his native Louisville to South America and Europe, and his songs have played over airwaves in Knoxville, Fort Collins, Asheville, Fredonia, and beyond! In 2023, Teale earned an honorable mention in Songdoor’s International Songwriting Contest for his song Drive You Home, which will feature on his album “Glitterfingers” releasing soon!
