| Baltimore-based rock singer-songwriter Mark Davison is the principal creative for NUKE THE SOUP. From the forthcoming album Dancing On The Edge, their new single “Biggest Storm” was produced by Grammy-winner Kevin Killen (U2, Peter Gabriel, Elvis Costello) and Gerry “Spooky Ghost” Leonard (David Bowie). The track features a lively ensemble of standout musicians, including keyboardist Brian Simms, guitarist Gerry Leonard, bassist Mike Mennell, and drummers Chester Thompson and John Thomakos. Together, this fiercely independent band crafts delicious rock-and-roll, blending introspective and socially conscious lyrics with infectiously catchy melodies and an effortless natural spirit.
Creatives like Davison draw from real-life experiences to craft music that feels honest and fresh. For Mark, an avid skier, being sidelined by back issues presented an immense challenge. The thought of missing out on powdery, freshly fallen snow taunted him—so much that he could no longer bear it. With the difficult choice between physical recovery and soulful rejuvenation, Mark decided to follow his heart, heeding the call of the mountains. With its catchy hooks and bouncy melody, “Biggest Storm” mirrors the pure, free-spirited joy of gliding down those snowy peaks. Nuke The Soup’s previous albums, Make Waves Not War (2009) and Deeper (2018), boldly tackled “big picture” topics such as politics, climate change, and the complexities of personal relationships. Now, with their highly anticipated upcoming album, Dancing On The Edge (out April 4), NTS continues to push boundaries, delivering a collection of energetic, ear wormy songs that explore life’s deeper questions while keeping listeners hooked with their signature sound. |
