Born and bred in Nottingham (UK), Nick Gibbs grew up amongst the Midlands folk and classical music scene, and has toured with bands across North America and Europe from 2000 to the present day.

Earning a DipMus and BA in his early career, following classical highlights with the Bristol Symphonia and performances live on BBC Radio 3, Nick later transitioned to the folk-rock scene, performing around the world with the Bleeing Hearts, FolkLaw, Inkubus Sukkubus, and supporting bands including the Darkness, the Levellers, and Shane McGowan.

Now operating under the Fiddle of 8 Records Label, Nick continues to tour and perform around the world with his main band FolkLaw and arranges and records string parts for artists from folk, to rock, to blues.

If you need a violin/fiddle player to dep with your band at a festival or event, or are looking for string arrangements for your music project, please get in touch. :)
