Nick Minicucci
Bass, guitar, piano
Nick Minicucci has been playing guitar, bass, and piano for over 25 years. He studied Guitar Performance, Music Education, and Music Analysis at the University of New Hampshire, which is when he also began teaching. He has been teaching off and on since then in many forms – from after-school guitar programs at local middle and high schools, group band lessons at summer camps, to many private students both in-person and online.
Since graduating UNH, Nick has toured extensively across North America with multiple bands and continues to do so today. He has played well over 1,000 shows, from small bars and clubs to large-scale concerts at major venues, amphitheaters, and festivals.
He has also founded multiple companies serving both the recorded and live music industries. He has worked with some of the biggest organizations in music, and has supported campaigns and projects for major artists like Papa Roach, Dirty Heads, The Offspring, and many more. He has spoken at music industry conferences and guest lectured at universities including Northeastern and Monmouth.
Nick has a deep interest in live performance technique, gigging and touring strategy, music data and the modern music industry. He also loves helping people learn the basics and get started on their music journey. He enjoys all styles of music – from rock and reggae to country, pop, classical, and everything in between – and is passionate about helping students explore whatever inspires them most.
