Nicotine Dolls

THE BELLY UP

Solana Beach, California

October 18, 2025

The Band members of Nicotine Dolls - Sam Cieri- Lead vocals and guitar, John Hays - Guitar, John Merritt - Bass, Abel Tabares - Drums

The pop/rock New York based band was formed back in 2017. Their big hit that debuted at #5 was "What Makes You Sad". Sam sang that song in 2022 when he appeared on America's Got Talent. Sam Cieri left the show because the producers wanted him to continue to perform solo rather than be with his band.

The band has since built a large following of fans. They are currently touring across the U.S.
