QUOTES:
"Interesting always and at times keenly insightful. His vocals are sheer delight: Jack Johnson meets Brian Wilson. Deceptively soft, yet powerfully on the mark."
- Kevan Breitinger @ Indie-Music.com
"Over and over, Nicholas Alan takes you right up to the times in your life when you were at your most vulnerable, your tenderest, your most emotionally intense. He takes you there, draws back a curtain and says, 'look, there you are. You saw these things, you felt these things.' His songs grow and grow on you until you are compelled to listen."
- Everett Young, Intelligent Pop
