Nick Stanton from an early age fell in love with music. He found playing guitar and singing was very natural and something on the inside of his heart told him he was born to play and make music. Because of challenging circumstances at home, Nick had no choice but to move in with his Aunt and Uncle during his high school years. Through this season, he became a Christian which helped him deal with all the difficult circumstances surrounding his family life. Yet amidst all these trials, God gave him purpose beyond his wildest dreams and Nick knew God would use all the painful things in his past to bring hope to people through his music. On his journey as a Believer, Nick stepped out in faith to write songs about tough times, God and His grace. He produced his first album called Rest and over the course of the next year, God put on his heart to write more songs. Nick just released his latest album Love Has Overcome, which he performed at FanDana, a large Christian music festival near Fort Wayne. Many opportunities are opening for him as he continues to take steps of faith toward the dream God put in his heart.
Nick has a way of connecting with his audience because of his vulnerability and his complete reliance on God. His music is touching people’s lives with a message of hope – no matter what you have done in your past, God can forgive you and give you a fresh start. His mercies are new every morning and anyone can experience his unconditional love in a relationship with Jesus Christ.
His music has been influenced by country, pop, rock and urban styles. If you like the music styles of John Mayer, Maroon Five, Cold Play and Jeremy Camp, then you will want to get his music. You can listen to both albums at www.nickstantonmusic.com and purchase them.
I have gotten to know Nick personally over the last couple of months. He has a passion for God, reaching hurting people and is willing to go anywhere God tells him to go. I am excited to see the journey God has for him unfold.
