Nichols has also announced a Gibson TV documentary, ‘The Long Road,’ which is scheduled for release on June 18. A preview trailer is available now.

Discussing the documentary and his relationship with Gibson, Nichols says: “Gibson is a major part of my musical journey, and they were the first believers in me years ago. They have been following me with a camera over the past 5-6 years, capturing some Hell & Back moments as well as some of the most creative times in my life. I am honored they decided to release my story.”
