'I Close My Eyes, And...' is another collection of easy-listening, fire-side confessions from Nick Balcombe. Laden with warm tributes to the those held in our hearts, Balcombe's velvety composition and introspective lyrics soothe both soul and mind. Yet melancholic undercurrents are unmistakable, for while Balcombe's music is a celebration of life, it is also a reminder of its impermanence, and therein lies the true depth of this first studio release.

Unity, love and introspection are the essence of song-writing for Nick Balcombe. Hailing from the windswept landscapes of coastal southern Tasmania, Balcombe has channelled the restful lifestyle into his music, and this warming debut EP reveals a soul laid bare and a sharing of life’s wonders. Reflective, heartfelt, and truthful to the core, the tender lyrics and lilting melodies do more than just capture hearts – they invigorate minds and cradle harsh realities

Bio
A native Australian, Nick is currently living in the Netherlands and writing, recording and performing between Europe and the UK after cultivating a successful local presence in his home state of Tasmania.
Nick's coastal acoustic sound is the result of the influence of the Tasmanian coastal lifestyle he has lived all of his life, a talent for emotional introspection and connection and a healthy addiction to reggae and beach chill outfits like Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz and Ben Harper.
