Top-notch new release with smash hit radio single "High Flyin'"
…. If you aren't already a Nick Colionne fan, JUST COME ON IN will most definitely convert you. No question about it, this man can tear it up on the guitar. Scott O'Brien, reviewer
Stereo Times
Toe-tapping harmonic structures with an added spice of
urban-contemporary rhythm that is reminiscent of Wes Montgomery. Nick (has a) charismatic style and fun-loving approach to his craft and it's just a matter of time before his name
is mentioned among the ranks of the top jazz guitarists. Craig Fitzpatrick, reviewer
WJZW, Washington, DC
"Nick Colionne brings a fresh, open style to the airwaves
with "High Flyin'. It's infectious and soulful. You'll even love the notes he doesn't play." Carl Anderson, Program Director, WJZW Washington, D.C.

With the coming of his new CD on Three Keys Nick Colionne is ready to take it national... if not international. He layers his unique style atop some strong back up and gives the listener a new view. He's got that flair that sets him apart from those that are merely talented. Ray Redmond, reviewer

Many guitarists use Wes Montgomery as their influence. Nick Colionne is one that has brought Montgomery's
sound to a new level. Colionne lets his guitar do the talking in both high spirits and intimate
reflections. You can tell when a performer is really doing what he wants to do by the way he puts his heart into it. Colionne has that heart. Just Come On In is the CD that is going to bring Colionne out of the pack and
break out big. Watch out Norman Brown. Norm Breest, reviewer

It's been a pleasure to feature an artist of Nick's calibre as our

and great to see him make it to number one on our chart several weeks in a row. His Wes
Montgomery inspired sound has put the industry on notice that he is a force to be reckoned with. David Williams, Publisher

If you want to hear some flying fingers then check out Nick Colionne. The CD is very groove
oriented and slickly produced. … An easy going flow and guitar notes with something to say…and a touch of funk. A different approach and that will make you say that there is some
creativity here. Jeff Charney, reviewer

Every
few years there seems to be another quality guitarist entering the jazz horizon, Norman Brown, Jonathan Butler, Peter White just to name a few. In 2003, you can add the name of
Nick Colionne to that list.
(His) guitar work is extraordinary. If you see Nick Colionne's "Just Come On In", you had better add this to your collection. You are sure to have picked a winner. Gwenn Harris
