Country artist Nick Hickman has announced the release of his second full album, making Lessons Learned his 8th music project. This project captures music that hits people where they are and that they can relate to. There is something for everyone on this record. The new album is available on all digital music platforms now HERE.
“We said a lot of things on this new record, and that is what matters to me. I wanna have things to say, I wanna write music that hits people where they are and that they can relate to. I don’t want to be another cliche artist. The pride comes in the product. I can’t tell you how proud I am to have made a record from start to finish that was all part of the vision and heart. I pour everything I have into my music. I write and re-write over and over until I feel like a song is great. I am not the greatest writer in the world, but I will work my tail off to make sure every song I put out is well crafted and says something. I hope people will hear the heart behind the record and know how many hours were spent crafting this record.. from all of the writing sessions, pre-production, tracking, and engineering, to producing. I put my stamp on every second of every song and I am proud of that. This industry will eat you alive, make you question every decision, whether you are good enough, and break you. But it sure is worth it to see a vision come to life. I may never get where I am shooting to go, but at least I am doing it my way and writing the music that I love. There is healing and reward in that and I love it. There is something for everyone on this record,” shares Nick Hickman.
Co-producer and songwriter Jeff Glasscock added, “Working on this record has been my favorite one so far! There are so many different elements that make this album special to me. From the writing process of Nick and I, to the collaboration with Christian Santangelo this album has been nothing but next level. Nick and I take a few trips to the mountains throughout the year and immerse ourselves in creative freedom. We allow ourselves to just let loose and write the way we like. Christian is such an excellent addition to our team as well! He is an incredibly gifted musician and engineer/producer so he is the perfect person to have brought in to work with us on this. All of the above-mentioned things really came together to help create this record. We have dumped our hearts into it and I think it shows!”
Official videos captured in Nashville and produced by Jordan Dziekan for this project are available on Nick’s official artist YouTube Channel.
