Wow! Petty cool to hear @geesebandnyc version of “You Get What You Give”! Gregg Alexander and I co wrote YGWYG in 1998 in my studio on Fredonia Drive in the Studio City hills. I think it resonates with people who have the music in them. You Get What You Give Written by Gregg Alexander / Rick Nowels

Lykke Li and I have a long history of writing songs together. In 2011 I flew to Stockholm, Sweden where Lykke, Bjorn Yttling and I wrote 5 songs for her “Wounded Rhymes” album. Our song “I Follow Rivers” became a global hit song. Last summer Lykke and I wrote new songs for her upcoming album “The Afterparty”. Special thanks to the brilliant Zac Rae for his amazing EBow, keyboards, bongos, and bass guitar. Here is “Knife in the Heart”.

Hello friends and nature lovers, As a young man I backpacked most of the National Parks in America. Rescinding the Roadless Rule is a devastation for all of us. Please read above and comment on the regulations.gov website. Link is in my bio. We have until this Friday September 19 to do this! Rick

Last summer I got a call from the Black Keys to see if I wanted to write songs with them. I said “Yes!”. We got together in their cool studio in Nashville and wrote 6 songs together. They are incredible writers, musicians and people. It was fun and easy. Btw I love Dan’s inspired production of “West Coast”, “Shades of Cool” and “Sad Girl” by Lana. Check out the Black Keys new album “No Rain No Flowers”. I love it. We also have a few unreleased songs that you’ll hear down the road. Thanks to the many great talents who contributed to the album. @mallenparker @deansatoshireid @a_manual_override @austindalecorona @dlevita007 @soundsbydom @johnchristopher @officerpatrickcarney @theblackkeys @easyeyesound

Just found this on instagram. Stevie and I co-wrote “Everybody Finds Out.” I was incredibly lucky to have the great Lindsey Buckingham produce it for Fleetwood Mac. It’s on their album, “Say You Will.” I love it. What an honor. Check it out. #stevienicks #fleetwoodmac #lindseybuckingham #sayyouwill #mickfleetwood
