Nicky has built a solid reputation in the music industry via many projects including writing and performing with his band Bomba, the newer and ARIA-nominated Bustamento, conducting the Melbourne Ska Orchestra, and playing drums for the John Butler Trio.
The art of live performance still holds sacred for Nicky who is eternally committed to creating a sense of community and unity whenever he plays. It is not uncommon for Nicky to go off on some magical tangent to really connect with an audience. Flying by the seat of his pants is something Nicky welcomes. “I’m always aware of the active energy of a crowd. Believing in the moment and kind of steering that spontaneous beast can result in something really special. Absolute positive vibrations.”
Supported by Bec Pap
