Nick Fletcher took up playing the guitar after being inspired by guitarists such as Steve Hackett, Jan Akkerman and Steve Howe; and after watching Christopher Nupen’s Documentary about the legendary classical guitarist Andres Segovia. He studied the classical guitar for 3 years with David Taplin at Huddersfield School of Music and by the mid 1990’s he decided that playing the solo Classical Guitar was to become the main focus of his musical activities.

Nick then recorded three highly acclaimed solo CDs of meditational music on the Classical Guitar for Kingsway Music and recorded an album of Lullabies for Classical Guitar for Dorling Kindersley. He also started to give many recitals of the Classical Guitar but writing music for the Guitar started to become his consuming passion out of which the CD Cathedral of Dreams was born. This was followed in 2012 with Shadow Lands. In 2014 he recorded A Moment of Stars for the Hacktrax label, and in 2017 Blue Horizon.

 

John and Nick have performed regularly together since 2012. They have released 2 CDs on the Hacktrax label: Overnight Snow in 2013 and Hills of Andelucia in 2017.
