Buffalo Nichols believes in the power of acoustic country blues. He also believes it’s not a fossil, trapped in amber, but a living, breathing musical genre. Which is why he blends elements of the tradition—slide guitar, resonator, open tunings, themes of loss, redemption, and struggle—with loops, samples, drum machines, myriad effects, and modern-day narratives. His new album, The Fatalist, is the culmination of his art to date. Listening to its echoes of Skip James, John Hurt, Pink Floyd, and Dr. Dre is an even stranger experience when you know Nichols started his career in the thundering, downstroke-chiseled trenches of the Midwest metal scene.
When you watch this Rig Rundown, Nichols will explain, and play, it all—it’s a fascinating story. And the gear! Get ready for a feast, full of the trad and the rad.

Lenny Kravitz is another artist and "band" i would love to see featured on Rig Rundown 🙂
Definitely checking this guy out! My favorite part of the interview was when asked about what he uses for volume control of different instruments … "I don't. I just confuse the sound engineer." Haha!
Great artist, crappy host. I'm not a fan of Ted
I saw an H9. Whats the blue pedal of the left side? Walrus Audio M1?
Hey it’s the Death Metal on a Resonator guy!
I see a Leadbelly shirt, I click,
Loved this interview
This guy does a great job with the interviews. Excellent insights.
Awesome guy, great musician.
Fuzzlord pedal – nice.
Such a great player! So happy to see this!
Great Rundown!
Buffalo Nichols is a hell of a guitar player, songwriter, and performer. Don't miss him if he comes through your town.
Ernie Ball Strings for life.
