In February 2020 Nelson turned all four chairs on the NBC hit show The Voice with his unique version of Stevie Ray Vaughn’s Pride and Joy. He advanced all the way to the “Lives” when Covid-19 took the world for a ride. So, Nelson took a ride and began preparing for his HAZMAT ‘N HANDSHAKES TOUR 2020.
He entertained audiences from Baltimore, MD to Bluffton, S.C. to Savannah, GA. He also took the time to give back by way of offering his talent to a few organizations like Fullerton College Cadena Music and Baltimore’s Restaurant Relief Fund via virtual concerts!
Nelson’s musical style embraces several genres from his one-of-a-kind finger-picking blues to his unique mash ups of pop tunes to his soul-stirring and elevating indie-rock and folky originals – he mesmerizes his audience every time! Blake Shelton’s comment encapsulates his style perfectly: “He [Nelson] can run the gamut from Lead Belly to ZZ Top!”
His debut single, FREEDOM off his debut album, Totally Unrelated, slated to be released later in 2021! His 2021 promotional tour takes him to: Atlanta, GA, Savannah, GA, Pensacola, Fl, Talladega, AL & Nashville, TN. Then he will be back in Baltimore for the Baltimore Jazz Festival!
