			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nick is an original solo acoustic performer. His song list has over 2 hours of original music with styles including ballad, funk, rock &#038; pop and a unique blend of all. </p>
<p>Nick has been playing acoustic guitar and singing for 15 years and has a wealth of performing experience. The first solo spot he had was at a local talent night when he was 17.  He performed 2 of his original songs &#8220;Joels Song&#8221; &#038; &#8220;Crashes Down&#8221; and won the auspicious prize of a Cherry Ripe. That sweet taste of success has spurred him on through the years where he has continued to write and perform to just about anybody that will listen.</p>
<p>Nick has been able to use his song writing to tap into a deeply personal &#038; emotive style. Several of his songs are poignant reminders of the fragility of life but still provide an uplifting vibe.</p>
<p>He has played several solo gigs in Cairns at the Courthouse/Bar Embassy &#038; the old Fox &#038; Firkin. Upon moving to South Australia Nick did gigs in Adelaide at the Prince Albert, SCALA nights at the Joiners Arms &#038; Goodwood Hotel. And recently In Townsville he has performed at the Folk Club, JCU Uni Bar &#038; a 4 hour gig at Brothers Leagues Club after a Cowboys home game.  </p>
<p>Nick can also play a range of covers from the old school (Cat Stevens, Tom Petty etc) and the new guys (Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Pete Murray &#038; Beautiful Girls) to round out a great set list of original and covers music.</p>
<p>Nick also plays in new Townsville original band Interstella with John, Davey &#038; Simon.</p>
