ABOUT

The call to express myself musically runs deep in me and has been a fruitful, lifelong pursuit. That said, music is meant to be shared. I recently moved to Montreal and am keen to find people to harmonize, create, and play with on a regular basis. Looking for good vibes, community, and sonic exploration. Would love to get out there and gig together too.

I released an album in a band called In This River (https://open.spotify.com/artist/3WEHGzdFOtn6750DapTkEM?si=jBWntGRgQ_yByIPkrxomOQ) when I lived in Boston.

Currently releasing music solo here: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0GdC3Kby7O0C1sul62xWac?si=SOkLWx7fTcC26DWTyUwBCw

I'm also a writer, publishing short poetic musings on a regular basis here: https://www.gram.com/nickoaken_/
