Nik Kershaw

About

Over Nik Kershaw's long career as a musician, he's worn several different costumes that signify his ever changing role within the music community. In the '80s he was a teen idol, and at one point in his career his was considered a virtuostic jazz-funk guitar player. He's settled into a more mature role, though, and plays simple, no frills, acoustic soft rock. While these tunes might be a bit laconic in instrumentation, their lyrics are full of allegorical meaning and rich in context.
