Nick's Press Kit

Nick Marzock is a student of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA.  He has written and produced more than 30 songs of his own, including such titles as "Ghost Town of Royal Highs" and "At the End of the Day." He sings as well as plays the drums, piano, guitar, bass, and adds the harmonica to his repertoire of more than 80 cover songs.

Nick started his music journey at the age of 5 when he began taking piano lessons.  He took a strong interest in drums by age 11, taking drum lessons from Alan Muckle, a well-known drummer around Pittsburgh's music scene. During this time, Nick and his friends formed their first band with heavy grunge influences from the group, Nirvana. They performed original material as well as covers.

In the years that followed, Nick spent hours each day with his acoustic guitar and drum kit, honing his skills and re-creating sounds and beats familiar to Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Jimmy Page, and his drumming idol, Carter Beauford. He got his first big solo acoustic performance opportunities during the summer of 2006 when he played at the North Park Field Club (Wexford, PA) Cabana Bar, and Cranberry Township's fireworks night to more than 1500 people. At both of these events, Nick's confidence and professionalism won over the audiences, and more appearances followed. Since then, he has appeared many times at Pittsburgh's Hard Rock Cafe in Station Square, the Smirnoff VIP Club at the Post Gazette Pavilion for Live Nation in Pittsburgh , H.J. Heinz Company events,  The Streets of Cranberry, and numerous other
private and public events. 

Nick appreciates all the support from his parents and sister, as well as his entire family and friends. He was a three year returning letterman on the Seneca Valley Varsity Football team where he was awarded All-Conference Tight End, second team for the WPIAL Quad A North Conference in the 2007 season. He is also the leader of the music ministry team of Grace Community Church in Cranberry.
