About Mike Nugent
A man of few words who adds spice to every song he plays, whether his original compositions or the many artists who welcomed him on their songs. Mike Nugent is the quintessential artist who transverses multiple genres, from Soul to Rock, and of course, the Blues.
A former Bellerose, Queens, NY native, now residing in Huntington, Mike began his musical career gigging various establishments on Long Island and in the metropolitan New York area. Nugent earned his reputation cutting his teeth from gig to gig and stage to stage, playing with Wes Houston & The All-Star Space Band (1972-1977, The Sheiks Band (1978-79) and The Stanton Anderson Band (1978-79).
In 1989 Mike formed Cadillac Moon and took the band on the road. Cadillac Moon’s song “Show Me Your Tattoo” was featured in the 1997 movie, The Devil’s Advocate with Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves. Currently Nugent plays with The Walkers and has formed "The Blue Moon Band" to support the release of his latest album, “Everything’s Gonna be OK”. Nugent’s music evokes the emotions of joy and lament.
As a multi-instrumentalist and producer, he lives to perform, while sharing his skills to produce music with local artists, such as Josie Bello and Linda Sussman. His latest album release “Everything’s Gonna be OK” was released in the autumn of 2022, as he assembled a tribe of musicians called the Blue Moon Band, which includes Diane Lotny, on vocals, Shawn Murray on Drums, Mark Mancini on keyboards, David Noyes on Bass Jimmy Fleming on violin, mandolin and guitar. Nugent just released his latest single “Slow Day in Limbo” and a follow-up album with Tony Barca, The Breakfast Club Session II”.
