PORTFOLIO
.
.
Nicola completed a Bachelor of Contemporary Music, with a Major in Vocal Studies from Macquarie University. She is a classically trained vocalist, violinist, trumpeter, and has professionally developed her skills as vocal coach, singing teacher and a performer for over two decades.
Nicola has performed in several musicals, bands, ensembles, choirs, both in Australia, and also overseas – touring with a choir and handbell ensemble around the UK. In addition to currently being a lead vocalist in Australia’s leading Fleetwood Mac cover band, and working on her own music releases as an independant artist ‘nik.’.
Nicola’s unique teaching approach is informed by a theoretical knowledge of vocal pedagogy and technique. Nicola has continually developed her approach to music education, through years of practice and training, which is always underpinned by two equally important principles: the personalised needs of the student as an individual (no matter their age), and the belief in the necessity of understanding and learning how to use the voice (and breathing) effectively and healthily as an instrument.
Additionally, Nicola strives to facilitate a positive learning environment for all students, encouraging them to not only develop their musicianship, techniques, creativity, diligence and discipline, but furthermore, discover and progress into whatever avenues and goals they wish to achieve musically and personally.
Nicola’s passion for music education, and her deep appreciation for ‘feeling’ driving creativity and artistry, is also a fundamental element Nicola shares with her students, encompassed in her holistic educational approach for each and every student. Nicola strongly believes in the process of peripatetic learning as an invaluable and enriching addition to a budding or advanced singer’s self-growth, both as a musician and an accomplished individual.

2022 will be a massive year for nik. – and after the year that was, she is overjoyed with the amazing creative opportunities and exciting plans already coming to fruition! Also newly appointed as a lead vocalist in Australia’s number one Fleetwood Mac cover band – Running in the Shadows – nik. will be gracing stages around the country, and (all going to plan) overseas too!

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
