Of course, me being the die-hard Clemson fan, this video was tailored to fit my alma mater. But the original version is generic and we even have a sing along version male and female version. There is no monetization of this video; it is strictly using public domain pics to enhance the song! Let me hear it from all you Tiger Fans, the audio copy is available for download on my website at http:jknichols.com/music if you’d like a copy and this version will be appearing on my next CD due out later this year from Star 1 Records, “All I Wanna Be is Me”! Hope you Tiger Fans will DL a copy and play it loud at the home opener against Troy, or if you’re going to Auburn, let’s rock the War Eagles with it!! GO TIGERS!!! </p>

<p>From my upcoming CD " High Cost of Loving", the second single from the CD is called "Old Wood Shavings" It is rare that I will cut a song that I did not write, but I did have the distinct privilege of writing the musical arrangement for this one for the Country Market. This is a beautiful song written by my cousin Robert Nichols about his Grandpa Pearson who was an expert "Whittler", a lost art we rarely hear much about these days. It is an incredible song about an incredible man, written by an incredible writer of whose life I'm so fortunate to be part of. Though there is a slight difference in our age, we have always been close and Robert mentored me in songwriting and taught me all I know about finger-picking a guitar. He is a prolific songwriter and Americana/Folk Artist in the Great Northeastern state of Maine where he resides! I hope you enjoy the video of "Old Wood Shavings". The CD is set to be out hopefully sometime next week for download on my website http://jknichols.com. Also I hope you will check out http://Robertsarts.net <br> <br>Enjoy and Blessings. <br> JK Nick Nichols</p>JK Nick Nicholstag:jknichols.com,2005:Post/41624192016-05-02T12:43:19-05:002016-05-02T17:16:14-05:00JK Nick Nichols to make 2nd appearance on Nashville Entertainment Weekly 05/02/2016<strong><a contents="NASHVILLE ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY SHOW" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.facebook.com/Nashville-Entertainment-Weekly-827088780651812/?pnref=story">NASHVILLE ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY SHOW</a></strong><br><br> <p><strong>Some more exciting news, I will be filming once again with Nashville Entertainment Weekly today for a second interview that will air on Cable Channel 49 to over a million viewers on TJTV!

<p><strong>Well as it was so well said by the legendary Hank Williams "the news is out all over town" and here's the fantastic news we've been chomping at the bit to announce for some time. Irish country sensation Mary Duff Official who is currently touring with top Irish country artist Daniel O'Donnell has cut our song "Just Not Enough" written by Amy Chenoweth, Danica Honeycutt and myself on her new album "Changing Lanes"!!! Amy and I sang the song tonight at the Commodore Grillle and announced the big news! What makes this so special is that Mary is a fantastic well known artist both overseas and in the US. Our own Garth Brooks has 2 songs on this album along with songs from Nashville #1 hit songwriters Kent Maxson, our good friendsGerald Smith and Randy Finchum , Casey Kelly, and Wood Newton, Kent Blazey, and Buddy Cannon. There are other #1 hit writers from both the US and Ireland on the album and this is Mary 's first international original album ever with hit writers from the US ! What a thrill to be on an album with Garth Brooks being a writer on it. This is our biggest cut ever and we are very excited about the buzz already spinning internationally about it's upcoming release in May ! Many thanks to Mary for including us on this fantastic project and to ISG Records. Much success to our friends Sean Andrew Murray, Peter Pries, and Howard Dee Crean on the launch soon coming. We hope everyone will pick up a copy! This one is gonna be huge ! What a great honor as a songwriter to be part of it!!!

Had a great early morning meet with my dear friend and legendary Treasure Isle Recording Studio Owner. Producer extraordinaire and former Manager of the Beach Boys and more accolades than I could even begin to script here, Fred Vail. Fred had a very important client in this morning and sometimes you just get lucky and happen to be as we like to say in this business "in the right place at the right time". In walks one of Country Music's most prolific songwriters and artists to every grace this planet, the one and only Rodney Crowell. Fred introduced us and told Rodney I was a songwriter and I had just an incredible but short conversation with the man himself as time is money and they were starting to track some new songs on him. He was so cordial and generous of his time with me, joked around a bit, shook my hand and wished me the best as he headed into the control room to start his session. Let me tell you folks, the honor was all mine, as Rodney has always been a SONGWRITING HERO of mine for whom I have always had the utmost respect for as a professional writer, musician and artist. And to meet him in an informal environment such as that and actually have a chance to tell him how much I have admired his work,that I am a fan and have him treat me back with that same respect, all I can say is I AM SO BLESSED TO BE HERE AND GET TO DO WHAT I DO.` Can't wait till his new CD hits the market, I will buy the first copy if possible!!! Thanks so much to Fred for having me down this morning and giving me the grand tour of the newly renovated Treasure Isle Recording studio and introducing me to the one and only Rodney Crowell!!</p>JK Nick Nicholstag:jknichols.com,2005:Post/40880502016-03-14T21:54:38-05:002016-03-14T22:09:43-05:00My Last Breath Here (Joey's Song) Written by JK Nick Nichols in Loving Memory of Joey Martin Feek (1975-2016) 03/14/2016<p>So often we wonder the purpose of God's Holy plan. Joey Martin Feek who lost her battle with Cancer just this past week, although I did not know her personally, from the stories of her life with Rory and the message of the songs they shared with the world was truly and angel from God that this world through her music, her testimony, and her love for her family and friends were privileged to know. Just two days ago as I read Rory's blog that was written upon her passing, he shared a thought in words, that the moment I read those words, God instructed me to write this song. It’s so hard to understand why someone so faithful, so Godly, in the prime of their life is struck down by one of the most horrific afflictions known to man, Cancer. But I believe, as I believe for all of us, God has a plan for each of us, and Joey fulfilled God's plan for her life and then He called her home. Not one of us can understand with our finite minds the infinite mind of God and His perfect purpose for each of us. Joey was an obedient servant of The Lord, it reflected in her life, in her joy with her husband and family, and in her music. I thank God for allowing us to have her for the time that she was given in each of our lives. This song is simply a testimony to the end of her life here on earth and the beginning of her life in eternity at the feet of Almighty God. I share this song as a reminder that we all have a choice, for one day we will all draw our final breath here on this earth, and where we take our first breath in eternity is based on the decisions we make here on earth and the lives we choose to live, how we go about our days, how we influence those we come in contact with each day of life we are granted. Joey got it my dear friends, and now she has inherited a crown of righteousness that will never tarnish. The Bible says plainly that a day is but a thousand years to the Lord. Can you only imagine the splendor and glory of a Heaven that will never end? Joey is no longer sick, she has a perfect body and that radiant smile tens of thousands more radiant that the one she left us with here, and now she is part of a Heavenly Choir, singing unending praises to her Savior forever and ever. Please continue to pray for this dear family. This song is dedicated in loving memory of Joey and to her family. I am putting this song on my Music Page as well. If you would like to download it, all proceeds from its sale will go DIRECTLY to the Feek family. Not only is Cancer a physically and emotionally draining disease, but financially devastating. Let's do our part to help this dear family in their time of need. God Bless you all and please share this with all of your friends and let's share this message that Rory left behind when he said "As Joey drew her final breath here on Earth, she took her first breath in Heaven". God Bless you all. And let’s help this dear family in need. The song added to my Music Page will also contain the lyrics so that you can follow along with the music. </p>3:34JK Nick Nicholstag:jknichols.com,2005:Post/40876732016-03-14T17:11:37-05:002016-03-14T17:11:37-05:00JK Nick Nichols Up to #6 on Reverb Nation Chart for Nashville 03/14/2016<p>More very exciting news again to share today!
