Hi folks, I hope all is well. The summer was fine indeed. I just got back to Chicago; I was on a three week tour of the west coast of BC. Prior to that I was in my ol' hometown of Saskatoon, performing at Buds during the Jazz Festival. It was great to see a bunch of my old friends again and make some new ones. Keep on lovin' the blues!

European Tour May 2006 In May we finally got the opportunity to tour Europe. I hadn't been there since I was a young lad. We had a marvelous time, perfoming all over Belgium, Holland and Germay at both festival and club dates. We had heard that Europeans have a special love for the blues and we were not disappointed. Very special thanks to all festival promoters, volunteers, radio DJs, club owners/staff and folks who went out of their way to help us get down the road a bit more smoothly. Also a warm hello to all the new friends we made and the fans, some of whom stood in the pouring rain to hear us play.
Cheers to the blues, Nigel
The Road 2004-05
The past year has turned out one of the best ever for Nigel Mack & the Blues Attack. In June 2004 the band performed at the world renowned Chicago Blues Festival for the third time, a feat unmatched thus far by any other Canadian blues artist.
This high-energy act has kept up a grueling tour schedule in support of two critically acclaimed CDs, 'Road Rage' and High Price To Play Nigel & the band performed engagements from Vancouver to Chicago, and way down south to Key West Florida.
Since 2003 Nigel has been headquartered in the center of the blues world, Chicago, IL. The previously Vancouver-based artist has toured North America sixteen times (logging over half a million miles) and headlined many of North America's top blues venues, including Buddy Guy's Legend's in Chicago and the 2000 Blues Club of the year, Bourbon Street Blues, in Nashville, Tennessee, with many more return engagements to come.
As those who have seen this band live will tell you, Nigel Mack & the Blues Attack are sure to keep you coming back for more!
