Purveyors of classic country, country-rock and roots music, Amarillo's (AKA Nick James
Band) origin goes back to May 1980.
In 1981 they recorded the Bob Dylan tune "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight" and "I Need Your
Love Tonight" for Desert Sun Records with Nick doing lead vocals as well as writing the
flip side. In 1984 they recorded the old jazz song "Route 66" and "Born Again" for Desert
Sun Records with Nick in the lead and again writing the flip side. In 1995 saw the
release of "You Don't Belong To Me", then later was released on Nashville's Stardust
Records label. The title song written by Nick received airplay as far away as New Zealand
and The Netherlands, as well as various states. Amarillo's music was often featured on
Paul Bain's "Let There Be Country" show on WFDU 89.1FM.
In 1997 Nick was nominated by Airplay International for their "King Eagle Rising Star
Award" in Nashville. Over the years Nick has been involved with groups that have opened
shows for Larry Gatlin, Emmylou Harris and Waylon Jennings (twice), and Vassar
Clements, the great country/bluegrass fiddler (twice).
Today the band features Nick James on bass and vocals; George Constantinou, veteran
steel guitarist of many bands and the earliest Amarillo recordings; Ray Murphy, lead
guitar and vocals who also has many bands to his credit, performing all over the Pacific
Northwest for many years before coming to New York; and Jim Salacan on drums, who
like the other members is a seasoned musician and has played all over the metropolitan
area. Amarillo has an affinity for incorporating "off-country" styles into their country
music with touches of honky tonk, rock-a-billy, blues and R&B. The group is continually
trying to please a wider variety of audience, yet maintaining that true country spirit.
Amarillo normally performs with 4 or 5 musicians but can perform as a Trio.
