Nick is highly talented singer/entertainer! Don’t miss out!

Nick, provided his service at our wedding. At the venue we heard from the guest, restaurant staff and other vendors. They all commented, “he is so good!” “Who is he and where can we see him next”? In my opinion, he is a awesome singer and performer
that we were lucky to find, locally. Our guest had great time enjoying his performance. All I know is helped to make our special day, spectacular! It wouldn’t have been as successful without his musical magic!
We felt so strongly about having him at our wedding that we even changed our wedding day to coincide with his availability. Thank you, Nick!

Nick is simply, outstanding!!! As a singer he’s superb, performing in a variety of genres; Pop, Rock, R&B and country! And most importantly, he performs them skillfully and authentically. What a terrific voice! As an entertainer, he’s energetic & outgoing engaging with our guest seemingly having as much fun as they are! He combines all the above with being a brilliant bassist, that entertains with his lively and funky bass runs making the guest get up and dance! What more could you want from a band, let alone a one man band. Don’t miss out, check out his YouTube channel. Nick is outstanding, and I highly recommend him for your party or event!!!

Phenomenal Musician!

I’ve had Nick play at several events. He plays/sings everything from the 60’s to the current hip hop and in between. He has boundless energy and knows how to work the crowd . Very approachable and professional and spot on with his voice & music - you won’t be disappointed! -Sandy White

Review of Nick Sanzeri

We have contracted Nick twice for community events at our clubhouse. Both times the community residents had high praise for Nick. After his first engagement, word got out around the community and the second engagement brought a significant amount more of the community residents. Nick plays all genres of music to be enjoyed by all ages. We have contracted Nick for 2 more evets this year and are looking forward to another fun time!

What to expect

A little bit about me: I have an extensive set list, impeccable delivery, a state-of-the-art Bose sound system, and I am fun, personable, and easy to work with.

For your big event, I know you wouldn't want to leave the music to chance. I've gotten nothing but rave reviews and would love to do the same for you!

One man, full band experience
Nick Sanzeri - The best of both worlds
Whatever the mood, energy or ambiance of your club, party, wedding or corporate event, Nick could perfectly match it and then take it to a whole other level.

As a lead vocalist and bass player, Nick brings serious musicianship and skill to every performance, but refuses to take himself too seriously. Your eyes won't believe your ears!

Clubs
Let Nick bring your restaurant or bar to life, and keep the audience there all night, with surprising and engaging song choices, impeccable delivery, state-of-the-art Bose sound, and an engaging and fun attitude.

Weddings and Corporate Events
At your biggest event the music has to be just right. And no need for a DJ as Nick will play the perfect intro and break music. You get the best of both worlds: a great value in a solo performer that could bring the energy and sound of a full band and the personality that will keep your audience on the floor all night.

Your Place
Do you want to be a hero to your friends and neighbors? Then hire Nick to light up your backyard, pool side, camp fire, driveway or any other imaginable setting. There is not a party too large or too intimate. And he has the AV horse power for even the largest events.

Set list

Over 340 songs and counting. I could send this to you upon request, as I do not want everyone to be able to see my setlist online. What I really want to know is what you like. I play everything from classic to current, but never cliche.

Influences and inspiration

As a singing bass player, I like to lean towards the funkier styles and anything with a groove. I've been influenced by everything from Classic Rock, Country, Dance and Disco and all kinds of Pop music, and even Jazz and the crooners of the 30's-50's!
