Nicholas began learning the guitar at age ten, and his early influences included Status Quo, The Beach Boys, Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles. Inspired by these artists, he began to try his own hand at song writing. Nicholas soon became interested in green issues, and organised a number of concerts of self-composed songs highlighting his environmental concerns. Since then, he has pledged to only write songs that uplift and encourage individual thought. Nicholas has written and recorded songs for other artists and composed instrumental work for presentations. He now works as a Performing Arts Technician.
