Grady Nichols

Grady Nichols was born in the non-jazz community of Siloam Springs, Arkansas. He was exposed to Smooth Jazz via The Weather Channel on TV and was especially inspired by David Sanborn. From this unlikely beginning, he has recorded multiple CDs, performed at the first Oasis Smooth Jazz Awards Show, appeared on BET Jazz, and has toured coast to coast and through the Caribbean, receiving accolades from media critics and fans alike along the way.
