The 21st Century sound that combines Chicago and Steely Dan, NSB, is a tour de
force ready to shine. Nick is a young, creative energy who will be mentioned in
the history books alongside Sinatra, Lennon and Wonder. The colors and imagery that
Nick writes with are musical canvases for galleries across galaxies. Nick has surrounded
himself with the musical elite in this new group, he is joined by Kenny Simmons
(commodores) Frank Elmo (sting) and Freddy Maxwell (alicia keys). Taking the scene
by storm, NSB is ready to challenge any incumbents.
Nick plays saxophone (alto, tenor, and soprano), flute, and keyboards on his debut
album, 26 Years, in addition to providing vocals on select tracks. Nick composed
the music and wrote the lyrics for 26 Years, and wrote all arrangements. Nick has
performed live hundreds of times. He has fronted his own jazz group for over five
years, playing venues in New York City (including CBGB, The Bitter End and Birdland),
the Honolulu Club in Hawaii, Miami, and Atlantic City. He has played multiple times
with The Derek Trucks Band, and he has played live with The Four Tops (whose hits
include "Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch" and "Baby, I Need Your Loving"). Nick has also
played the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, New Jersey, and was featured
as the front man for the 2008 NJPAC Jazz Alumni Concert. His jazz group, Jazz Patrol,
just played The NJPAC in 2010, when it opened for Johnny Mathis. Nick's jazz group
was prominently featured in the series finale of NBC's Lipstick Jungle, which starred
Brooke Shields. Nick also organized and led the memorial concert for J. Chuck Sastré,
held at William Paterson University in November 2008. The memorial concert also
featured performances by David Demsey, John Pendenza, and Jimmy Young. Additionally,
Nick helped found the J. Chuck Sastré memorial scholarship, awarded to high school
students who pursue degrees and careers in music.
