Nick Hexum has spent decades uniting people through music with 311—but in his solo work, he’s going even deeper.
In this thoughtful conversation with Chasta and Baby Huey, Nick talks about exploring Americana and bluegrass influences, writing songs rooted in family, grief, and parenting, and why vulnerability is essential to real human connection. He opens up about finding awe in everyday moments, raising kids in a digital world, and how music—especially live shows—remains one of the most powerful ways to bring people together.
Nick also looks back on the Blue Album 30 years later, the raw energy of ’90s concerts, opening for Fugazi, and what fans can expect from the upcoming 311 Day celebration in Las Vegas.
It’s an honest, reflective conversation with an artist who’s still curious, still evolving, and still chasing connection—onstage and off.
