Hey friends!

Big news! I’ve just been added to an amazing lineup on VH1 Best Cruise Ever! I will join hosts 3 Doors Down, Lifehouse, Shinedown, and many more on the Carnival Inspiration from Tampa to Grand Cayman, April 15th-19th, 2010 for a 4day rockin’ festival at sea.

There is no better way to escape from it all than to spend your days sailing on a cruise ship full of your favorite friends and bands, fruity drinks & not-so-fruity drinks, and all of the live music you could possibly want! Plus, we’ll be making a stop at the gorgeous port of Grand Cayman to discover it’s amazing beaches and waters, only to get back on-board for more nonstop music.

Make plans now to jumpstart your Spring by sailing with Nic on VH1 Best Cruise Ever. Head over to www.vh1bestcruiseever.com or call 877-SIXTHMAN for all the details and to book your cabin today.

Best Cruise Ever? I think so!

So I’m hanging out on the tour bus here in Independence, MO and thought that I would let the curious in on what’s been happening so far on the road. I’ve been the opening act for the Zac Brown Band on the Breaking Southern Ground tour since September and it has been amazing! We’ve traveled all over the country and every city has been so welcoming to us. Kid Rock, Little Big Town, Shawn Mullins and many more joined ZBB and the Southern Ground Records artists for a night I’ll never forget at the Fox Theatre last month in my hometown of Atlanta for the Rebuilding The Georgia Theatre benefit. It was really great to be apart of this cause with so many talented artists and musicians.

Recording is going great for my first full length album. All that’s left to be done is vocals and horns! The album will be released this coming spring, I hope y’all dig it! Also I will join Zac Brown Band, Levi Lowrey, Sonia Leigh and many more artists on the Sailing Southern Ground Cruise taking place Labor Day weekend 2010. Check out sailingsouthernground.com for more information.

I’ll be playing all throughout the southeast this coming January and February so If you would like me to come to your city please message me on Facebook. Ok, well I got to go to soundcheck but I’ll check in farther down the road, see ya!

Labor Day Weekend 2010, Nic Cowan and the Zac Brown Band invite you, our most passionate and dedicated fans, to experience the first ever Sailing Southern Ground Cruise. We are bringing together you, and 2,000 other friends, who all value family, food, and authentic music above all else. We will fill the Carnival Inspiration September 2-6 with unique musical performances, spur-of-the-moment collaborations, a ZBB twist on cuisine, amazing new friendships, and incredible stories. We want to bring you a vacation that you’ll talk about for a lifetime. With us as your hosts, some amazing artist friends joining us, and fans like you coming from all over the globe, it’s gonna be one hell of a good time!

From the moment you walk on the ship in Tampa, FL, we’ll deliver nonstop music including our main stage ticketed shows, dozens of general admission shows from artists to be announced soon, and plenty of impromptu collaborations. And of course we’ll make a stop in beautiful Grand Cayman before taking us all back to reality. Outside of all the incredible music, you’ll be hanging out with your closest friends on a beautiful cruise ship, lounging in crystal clear pools or at one of a dozen bars, eating in one of many on board restaurants spiced with ZBB flavors, and maybe even gambling in the full service casino.

New dates have been added as Nic continues his nation wide tour with the Zac Brown Band, Sonia Leigh, and Levi Lowrey. Please visit his tour page to see when he will be in your city.
