Coming off of a very successful debut release titled “Paint Me Away”, one in which his songs have been used for very noticeable TV/Film networks, he needed direction on the next project. And it was one he didn't rush into.
Nick has had the ability to enjoy success as an indie artist without the support of any label. He started iamthe2ndman music publishing for his songwriting. He has opened for mainstream artist such as Sidewalk Prophets, Our Hearts Hero, Geoff Moore, Nate Sallie of NewSong, John Reuben and Nevertheless. In recent years he has played on Daystar TV Network, garnered votes from around the world to win the Famecast Fenom with his song “Over and Over” and then won a second time.
On the 2011 season of American Idol, Nick’s song “Apology” was used in the underscore on the show and both “Apology” and “It’s All for You” were used on other various projects/campaigns throughout the year. As of recently, E! News, Style Network, NASCAR, CMT, and eTalk have all used Nick’s music on their programming.
He has also been included in Billboard Magazine, SPIN Magazine, played the famous Stubb’s in Austin, TX, The Paramount in Ashland, KY and has been included in newspapers, music compliation CD’s, magazine articles, as well as press in the UK and radio play and interviews as far away as The Netherlands. Nick has been a WV NewSong Finalist and the music video for “Paint Me Away" has been seen on JCTV (TBN Network) and other networks.

“You can tell that Nick really put his heart into this; It has a genuine honesty and raw truth to it that is so rare these days. It shows the ups and downs in a life with Christ and gives you a good look at what Nick, like so many other believers, is going through. This is definitely my favorite and most listened to album in my iPod right now, and I'd recommend it to anyone. (Album: "Paint Me Away")”
