I regularly perform live music either as a pianist or as a vocalist in NTJQ. I have a wealth of performance experience from function bands to original bands, from weddings to birthday parties. I play Bass Guitar in the funky fusion band Really Rhubarb. I write original music and create educational music resources check them out in the brand new Music Nik shop!
