BIO:
Nick Greenberg, a professional bassist and composer, has played a wide variety of musical styles: Classical, jazz, rock, Broadway musicals, and even the occasional polka gig. His performances have included concerts at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and in such distant locales as Taiwan.
Nick’s first job was as a busboy, but quickly climbed the ladder to dishwasher. Later, he worked for a caterer in Minneapolis, and then did a stint as a prep cook at his uncle’s restaurant. His brief career in the food industry, however, convinced him he’d much rather be playing and composing music, writing fiction, and eating his way through the world’s restaurants. Nick is a former chocolatier, a current winemaker, and an award-winning home brewer.
