Nash takes his stage name from a 1927 silent film by Laurel And Hardy called
Do Detectives Think? In the movie, they play detectives on the look out for a
murderous butler named Nash the Slash. Nash was originally part of the Toronto
based prog-rock band FM. He recorded one album with FM (Black Noise - amazing
album - buy it) then left to pursue a solo career. As a solo artist, Nash put on
a great one-man-band show. He plays electric violin and electric mandolin over top
of programmed synthesizers, bass pedals, tape-loops etc. He has a great visual show,
dressed in mummy bandages, wearing assorted head gear (top hat, construction helmet,
motorcycle cop helmet, etc) employing lights, strobes, slides, projections etc. He
was one of the opening bands for The Who at the CNE in 1980 for 70,000 people! He
also toured North America and Europe opening for Gary Numan in 80/81. A Nash show
was always a great experience. FM and Nash did regroup sporadically for a few more
tours and albums throughout the 80's and 90's.
