Nic's Bio:
"I began learning guitar in late 1999 when I received my first guitar, a Washburn BT-4, as an early Christmas present with an issue of Guitar World magazine as its companion. I quickly progressed on the instrument leading me to be involved with multiple traveling bluegrass and gospel groups by the age of 15. In 2003, I relocated to Claremore, OK where I joined 10:51, Youth Christian Rock Worship Band. 10:51 worked as a traveling worship band playing at services, revivals, and retreats as well as competing in the Total Nazarene Talent competition representing northeastern OK took 2nd place nationally in the youth music division. I first began giving basic guitar lessons when i went to college at Northeaster State University in Tahlequah, OK in fall 2005. After turning 21 I began playing out more frequently as a solo acoustic act in local area bars and clubs as a source of income to support myself as a student. By 2010 I was living in Tulsa, having played with some very high level regional bands, I began formal studies at The Oklahoma Music Academy under studio ace Mac Ross. After 2 years studying with Mac, I relocated to Colorado Springs, CO where he resided for nearly a decade. In my time in Colorado Springs I have had the opportunity to meet and play with a plethora of wonderful musicians as well as form several bands, release 2 albums and tour the regional circuit."
Currently Nic has relocated back to Tulsa "where it all began" and is working on releasing material with all groups he is actively involved with and you can find Nic playing out 6-8 times a month in between all of the projects aforementioned.
