Formerly based in Las Vegas, NV - Nick Motil is consistently one of the highest booked acts in the country (US) in the college market. Having toured close to 200+ dates the past 3 years, Motil was nominated for Small Venue Performer of the Year by Campus Activities Magazine in 2008.
Nick Motil is often compared to artists like David Gray, Paul Simon, James Taylor, and Matt Nathanson, however, Motil is an artist that is a little more uniquely familiar. You feel like you've heard this kind of music played before....but never quite like this.
Using aggressive acoustic lines - often performing solo and incorporating some live looping - and open tunings - Motil's music, itself, reminds the listener of a more intense group of artists like Ani DiFranco or Michael Hedges. However, Motil brings all that to a smoother, softer approach by combining heart-felt and honest lyrics. Constantly creating music you can relate to. You're not alone - others have been there before. Everything will be alright :)

I've fallen in love with your face
And as you lie there, sleeping,
Wide awake, I'm pleading,
I'm willing to do whatever it takes
To be here every morning that she wakes
And come the morning, I swear,
Darling, I will be there.
Willing to do whatever it takes.
To make sure all your secrets,
Have some safe place to be in,
Darling, store them here, sleep at my place
That brand new bed you bought feels like a waste.
'Cause every morning when the sun hits your face
Every freckle, every smile-line soaking in.
I'm head over heels and I don't care who hears.
I've fallen in love with your face.
So you can shout it from the rooftops,
Scream with all that you've got,
You got something good, boy, don't let it escape.
Just hold on tight with all you've got,
Pull out all the last stops,
But slow down, girl, love ain't a race.
Slow it down, boy, savor the taste.
'cause every morning when the sun hits your face
Every freckle, every smile-line soaking in.
I'm head over heels and I don't care who hears.
I've fallen in love with your face.
I've fallen in love with your face.
