A Warrior Nation - Superficial Love

l_5589bd7d95087a55ab49850e86fef98c.jpg

A Warrior Nation is Nick Green (lead vocals) and Adam Lampert (keyboards and synth), an incredibly dynamic writing and production team backed by an extremely talented crew: Dave Rosser (guitar), Benji Vander Broek (bass), and Tray Potts (drums). Together, they have created a catalog of poignant soulful funk grooves. Their messages range from relevant social causes to provocative life situations.
A Warrior Nation’s creators, Nick and Adam, met just a few years ago, through another band affiliation. As a result of their collaborative writing, a linchpin in their success, they decided to put aside their other music endeavors to pursue a venture of their own: A Warrior Nation is a modern fusion of soul and funk, with elements of jazz, R&B and rock.
Atlanta-born Adam Lampert, a classically trained musician, arrived in Los Angeles in 2006. Shortly thereafter, he met another young, aspiring singer-songwriter, Los Angeles-born and bred, Nick Green. Adam and Nick would eventually become the frontmen for A Warrior Nation, and the creators of the new band’s sound and soul. Earlier this year, the dynamic duo left their musical side-projects behind, to work full-time on building A Warrior Nation.
A Warrior Nation has since added to its talented lineup: guitarist Dave Rosser, a classically trained guitarist who can also be heard on Dub-Reggae legend Lee “Scratch” Perry’s newest album, “Repentance”; bassist Benji Vander Broek, who did previous stints and nationwide tours with southern gospel group, The Crusaders, and Omaha-based indie rock band, The Show is the Rainbow; and drummer Tray Potts, another Los Angeles native, who has toured with R&B artist Montell Jordan, and has also worked with several other artists such as producer Shep Crawford, Professor Funk, Darren Crawford & Fulfillment and R&B artist Deborah Cox.
A Warrior Nation’s funky, soulful grooves have been entertaining audiences across the Los Angeles landscape since February of this year. They have played to crowds at nightclubs and live music venues, charity events, universities, festivals, and even to a fashionista set during a special appearance at a local boutique.
