Bio
Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Rich Nimkie developed eclectic tastes in music at an early age including: Iron Maiden, Metallica,The Beatles, Billie Holiday, Bob Marley and Elliott Smith. Rich’s reserved demeanor contrasts strongly with his candid and unbridled stage presence. With a voice compared to Elliott Smith and Davey Havok (of AFI), Rich delivers a mix of styles and genres with poetic and brutally honest lyrics. His masterful control of the acoustic guitar enables him to evoke the strong feelings contained within his songs.
Throughout Rich’s career, he has found himself in a variety of groups ranging from bar/cover bands to punk and heavy metal/ hardocre. Working with such a variety of musicians has played a huge part in the evolution of his music. Rich’s career was forever altered when a side project entitled, “Autumns Forgotten” a four song demo (2006) received such a positive response and has been recording as a solo artist ever since.
Following “Autumns Forgotten,” his first full-length “Center St.” (2007), gives you an insight to the butterflies he stores inside, delivered with his unique humbled voice. Backing “Center St.” Rich has been playing shows at venues including: The Yucatan Jam (Yucatan, MN), The Rave/Eagles Ballroom and The Miramar Theater (both located in Milwaukee, WI).
