Bio
This Florida native started banging out tunes on the piano at age 4 and hasn't stopped since. Believing that the answers to life are in human interaction, Nick wrote "Ripple" on this premise: How do the people we meet affect who we are? The LP's title track reminds listeners to "chisel your niche / and you'll find the fish are finding you." Nick's second album, "Live In 2007" has received acclaim from regional press critics and many Industry voices. Showcasing Nick's catchy hooks and rocking grooves, "Live" is the focus of his 2008 tour. Nick has performed in 19 US States and continues to promote education. He is endorsed by Holland Guitars and KOA.
