Biography
Jeb Loy Nichols was born in Lander, Wyoming.[1] He has lived in Missouri, Texas and New York City before moving to London, England, in 1981.[2]
In 1990, he formed The Fellow Travellers with his wife, the vocalist Loraine Morley. That year, they released the album No Easy Way on the independent Ohio-based Okra record label, followed by Just a Visitor in 1992, Things and Time in 1993, Love Shines Brighter in 1993 and A Few Good Dubs in 1995. In 1994–95, Morley released the album A Face Drawn in Sand (OKra/NORMAL Rec) with mandolin, harmonica and occasional backing-vocals courtesy of Nichols.
In 1997, Nichols released his first album under his own name, Lovers Knot on Capitol Records. Positive critical reviews could not overcome poor sales and he was dropped from the label. He then released Just What Time It Is on the Rough Trade in 2000, the same year he moved from London to mid-Wales.[3] Rykodisc released Easy Now in 2002. 2005's Now Then on the Tuition label marked the fourth record label in a row. Tuition then released his 2007 release Days Are Mighty. Parish Bar was released in 2009 on Tuition in the UK, and Compass in the US. Strange Faith and Practice was released in 2009 on the Impossible Ark record label.[4]
