Nick Isham is a singer-songwriter, coming from Los Angeles, California.

Growing up as an athlete, Nick was fully engrossed in that career path.  Football being the primary sport, Nick earned MVP accolades in high school from his team, the county, the state and even national recognition.  This helped land him at Louisiana Tech University on a full scholarship where he started at quarterback as a true freshman. Becoming the 2nd youngest starting quarterback in D1 NCAA history at the time.

He picked up guitar at the end of his senior year in high school. And during his time in college, he began singing and writing his own music.

Nick's first musical influence was Jack Johnson, making him want to pick up the guitar and start playing and writing songs.  As he continued playing and writing, his influences spread from the likes of John Mayer, Ed Sheeran and Jason Mraz, to the hip-hop influences of Eminem and Tupac, to Motown legends like Bill Withers and Marvin Gaye, songwriting legends such as Van Morrison, and (having gone to school in Louisiana) even picked up country influences from artists like Brantley Gilbert, Thomas Rhett and Chris Stapleton.

Nick is able to blend all of his many different influences into his own very unique sound.  From his honest and soulful voice, to his rhythmic and melodic ingenuity; from his personal story telling and uplifting messages that he portrays in his music, he pulls people in from the first note he sings or the first chord he strums to the very end of each song.

He is a prolific songwriter and has written and/or produced well over 1,000 songs in his writing career, for himself and others across many genres.  

He has 5 solo EPs and a number of TV/Film placements such as the end credit song called ‘Change’ for the #1 Hollywood film “Honest Thief” and 7 songs in the Fox/Hulu drama “The Cleaning Lady”.

Nick performs as a solo, looping artist across the country from Los Angeles to Nashville to New York. With his beatboxing, guitar playing, and background harmonies, he builds tracks live with his looper, creating  “stand in your seats” crowd singing, exciting and engaging shows.
