Nick Rattigan Interview For FORGE. Issue 7
Фильм және анимация
Nick Rattigan has experienced what it means to play music in the world of DIY from a range of experiences in three completely different contexts. Going from playing house shows in Reno, to playing The Smell in Los Angeles, to playing local venues in New York where he currently resides, Nick has grown enormously as a musician and performer from when he first started the band Surf Curse with his best friend since high school, Jacob Rubeck. Although the two have made music together long distance for the past couple of years, Nick’s current focus has been his solo project, the name of which he changed from TELE/VISIONS to Current Joys a few weeks after I met him and conducted this interview. Since moving to NY this past fall Nick has put out one of his most vulnerable and consistent albums yet, Me Oh My Mirror, and is now navigating where to go with new music in a new city with his new name.
This video also features music by Surf Curse, TELE/VISIONS, Current Joys!

iamaloserandsoareyou on tumblr he's been teasing a project that goes by the name "devil worship". here's a link to that: currentjoys.tumblr.com/post/151356287457/devil-worship-you-make-me-feel
I could listen to him talking for 10 hours
Nick was the first artist i discovered when i was younger, he introduced me to so much art and beauty. I don't think i will ever be able to thank him personally, but maybe one day.
His explanation of how he feels going to shows and the social obligations is exactly how I feel about it haha.
I love that he's holding an interview and shamlessley picking his nose
the way he laughs when he says "jacob got kicked out of the band" omgg i could listen to him saying that foreverrrr it's soo cutee
Great artist. Love his projects.

The feels i got for this man honestly define the meaning „love“ for me. 😅 like every word, just hella everything is so relatable, so damn true, yet so damn rare. Ah men. What a person. So complex, so not simpleminded, so not basicbitch, so downtoearth.
i luv this man so much
Dam Thats Dope Af He From Vegas Didn't Think Anyone Here Made Good Music Like Him Hopefully You Come Out Here To Play Keep Doin You Your Music Means A Lot To Me
I learned a thing or two from this, thanks.
He is so wonderful
Pure inspiration and encouragement to be who i am and who i don‘t like. That sounds so weird. But ye, just a weird mixture to describe, would take me way too long and id probably bore everybody. but thanks anyway!:) pls nick, if u don‘t know by now, u‘re worth more than i could describe by being so authentic and u. So impressed by ur thoughts and ur way of expressing urself. Happy that u found a way to express ur thoughts and feels. God what a great character.
i love this man forever
I'm SO GROSS You're great person
I love you and your songs Nick ! Keep it real!!!
I love him and his songs they are amazing
