Endorsed by Mono Cases and Shaw Amplification of Nashville, TN, Jason Nix is a singer/songwriter/guitarist. This is his blog about life in the studio and on the road….and about life in general.
It’s interesting how God seems to work things out. In the midst of taking “everything” away from me, I’ve found that He’s given me quite a bit… things that I’ve always wanted. Maybe it’s to put things into perspective for me– to show me that at the end of the day, music is JUST a job. Yes, He’s made me love it. Sure, it’s how He uses me, to a certain level. But it is just a job, and there are things in life that are more important– things that will last longer. So I’m thankful for this revelation. So now, maybe after it’s too late, i have my priorities in line.
In the meantime, the Sugarland show was pretty sick… 18,000 people gave me butterflies for the first time in years. I forgot how much i loved that feeling. Playing college theaters full of people who PAID their hard-earned money to listen to original music is also new to me–but it’s an exciting time in life… for however long it lasts.
I’ll be sure to post some pictures on my Flickr for you guys to see, as well. You can find all those at the bottom of this home page (see more photos).
So alongside the shows I’m playing with Disney and other artists this year, I’m also booking shows for myself. If you’re interested in having me in your area, shoot me an email.
This also may be of interest to you. Legendary manager Johnny Wright is hosting an online talent search along with the Jonas Group at www.cambio.com. I was asked to do a video for it. If you search the site, you’ll probably find me singing “Bubbly”. Oh yeah… I get the tingles in silly places, too.
You can also find all that on my youtube site. www.youtube.com/xinnosaj
Over the past few weeks, I’ve had some people ask me for my demo reel. I’ve decided to try to post it on the site. Hopefully this works. As I write this, I’m packing up and getting ready to head to Ida, Michigan to play the Festival of Lights. I just hope it’s an inside gig. It’s supposed to be 17 degrees in Nashville. How much colder will it be up there???Jason Nix Demo Reel #1
