In an era of mass-produced, Garageband manufactured music, authenticity can be a hard to find. The title of this album, "Time's All Gone" , hints at a throwback to simpler times, and so it is: at the height of "Time's All Gone" , you can almost imagine being in the room with Nick Waterhouse as his band play small snippets from another time, his regal backup vocals, his own unsettling voice, and the noisy band that are too riled to play better. It's reminiscent of a past three decades before his time [...]
Are you ready for the summer? Are you ready for the good times? Are you ready for the birds and bees? The apple trees? And a whole lot of indie rock? Well you're in luck because that's what we have here with the first mix of Summer Fridays 2012.* I am hoping to do these every Friday, though I'm gainfully employed now (we don't get summer Fridays at my job, unfortunately) and have a lot less time - and energy - than I have the last four years. Which is good! Anyway, we'll see how I do. This kickoff mix [...]

What year is it again? I thought I was living in 2012, but listening to Mr. Nick Waterhouse's new LP Time's All Gone makes me wonder if I'm off by a half-century and we're really living in the hoary days of 1962, before anyone had ever heard of Lee Harvey Oswald or the Beatles or lysergic acid, like some PKD novel. Mr. Waterhouse is a musical retroactivist from sunny California who makes music evoking that innocent time, although evoke is perhaps too subtle a word for what's going on here; more accurately: M. [...]
Nick Waterhouse is a man working a sound rooted in the early Soul and R&B that once piped out of the cathouses, clubs and dancehalls from coast to coast in pre-Beatles America. But forget nostalgia, the seam Waterhouse is working is a far cry from any kind of prefabricated 'retro' trip - this is happening [...]
It is quite a rush exposing people to the music you love, even if you aren't the songwriter after all.

Il pourrait être le frangin — qui aurait bien tourné — d' Amy Winehouse ou le fruit d'un mariage entre les 2 membres des Black Keys et Raphael Saadiq . Assurément avec un name-dropping comme ça on ne peut vous cacher que Nick Waterhouse passe en boucle au bureau depuis plusieurs semaines. Avec Time's All Gone , son premier album, Nick Waterhouse frappe très fort et très haut. C'est sur Innovative Leisure (label d' Hanni El Khatib ) qu'il signe 11 tracks toutes aussi efficaces les unes aux [...]

by Bill Pearis While he's been hot stuff in his home of Los Angeles for a while, retro-styled R&B bandleader Nick Waterhouse is now gaining traction in New York too. His show this Saturday (5/19) at Mercury Lounge is now sold-out and he's been added to the line-up of the Village Voice 4Knots Festival at South Street Seaport on July 14. In between -- next weekend to be specific -- he'll [...]
Revival R&B Singer, Nick Waterhouse ' 12-song set for his record release at the Eagle Rock Center for the Arts felt like an underwater bubble jungle party in 1954. Every throw-back stitch was perfect. Every soul spirit from James Brown to Amy Winehouse seemed to fill the space for inspiration. And every pair of horn-rim spectacles was glued to the stage. This, indeed, was a happy nerd gathering of all things retro. Waterhouse has been on this planet for a mere 25 years but his homage to vintage soul feels like that of a lively octogenarian. He [...]

![Nick Waterhouse – Time's All Gone [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4257771_lg.jpg)
On the Tuesday night of SXSW, Oz was trying preview Nick Waterhouse for me before seeing his set the following day. I was skeptical at best; ornery at my worst. I remarked to him, "I hope this isn't some hipster bullshit revival act where some clown gets up in a suit and sings some old-school karaoke crap." The next day, we had just witnessed an amazing set from Lee Fields and I was still prickly. "That's a tough set to live up to," I remarked. But then, not only did Nick Waterhouse put to rest any moronic preconceived [...]

Nick Waterhouse Album: Time's All Gone (Buy) Label: Innovative Leisure Nick Waterhouse - I Can Only Give You Everything Tweet
Nick Waterhouse doesn't need to go beyond his favorite low-key spots in L.A. when it comes to entertaining Japanese business men. All he needs is a round (or 10) of whiskey shots, his guitar, an American flag in the background and a visit to a late night taco truck. The soul singer's debut "Time's All Gone," which came out this week on Innovative Leisure, follows a similar fashion. It's a collection of songs completely stripped of unnecessary frills, and boy, is it a ton of fun. ||| Download: "Some Place" [...]
