Neilson

Born and raised in a small town in New Hampshire, Neilson fostered his musical talents from school choirs and jazz bands to local open mics and talent shows. Neilson’s influences range from classic rock to blues, folk, jazz, neo-soul, and world music. He began his songwriting career while attending music production school at University of New Haven. In 2014, he enlisted in the Navy, which landed him here in San Diego. In between months out at sea, Neilson grew roots in the local music scene, frequenting Lestat’s West and Tin Roof. To date, Neilson has released one EP (2017) and one single, “Medicine Man” (2023).
