About

Producer-musician Kid Nick’s sounds infuse melodic, dreamy keys on midtempo. Afrobeats, R&B, and house are a few of the genres that inspire their bouncy production.

 

Beyond production, Kid Nick is also an accomplished classically trained pianist. Hailing from the Bronx, Kid Nick began taking music lessons as early as six from their mother and continued to pick up additional instruments. As a teenager, Kid delved into the arts and explored musical theater, choir, and even orchestra. Inspired by artists like Joe Hisaishi, Al Green, Alicia Keys, and many, many more, they channeled their love of music into playing for open mics and performances across the city. In 2022, Kid Nick released their first song “World Tour” with singer-songwriting Luvchild with over 70k streams across platforms. Their work has been featured in various outlets and campaigns such as R+, multicolor records, Nike, Visual Atelier 8, and more.

​

Kid Nick continues to connect with all up-and-coming artists to collaborate and make music production knowledge more accessible to young Black and queer producers.
