About

Nick Amling & the Lifeline, Madison, NJ

Nick Amling & The Lifeline is a rock n' roll band originating from New Jersey and now based in Nashville, Tennessee. Drummer Andy Baker and Bassist Landon Matheny help Guitarist and Vocalist Nick Amling make the loud louder. Their music blends various genres like the Blues, Hard Rock, Alternative Rock, and Classic Rock with influences from artists such as The Foo Fighters, Jack White, and Nirvana.  Over the past 2 years, releases such as the songs "Creatures" and "That's All Right” have both been highly praised by their listeners and have been complimented by some of the newest rising Rock N' Roll artists such as Kelsy Karter, Adam Slack, and Nick Perri.

In mid 2022, the Lifeline worked with Grammy award winning engineer, Brendan Dekora (Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails, Michael Buble, Muse), to release their alternative-hard rock single, “Creatures.” Wanting to focus more on the roots of their favorite music, in late 2022, they worked with another award winning engineer, Dan Konopka (of alt. band OK Go), to release a cover of Arthur Crudup's “That's All Right.”

Nick Amling & The Lifeline have been extremely grateful to have played a number of shows in the NYC/NJ area recently such as the Great Swamp Music Festival (2022), National Night Out NJ (2021), Madison, NJ's "Bottle Hill Day" Festival (2021), The Stone Pony (Asbury Park, NJ, 2022), and The Mercury Lounge (New York City, 2023). The Lifeline is stoked for their upcoming release on November 24th of debut EP "Roll The Dice," recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. With this long awaited release, The Lifeline will be touring around the east coast this fall/winter, playing to crowds in cities such as Nashville, Atlanta, Boston, and New York.
