I’m here for YOUR SONG, not my own ego.

I’m Nick.

I help bring the often felt-but-not-heard ear candy that glues your song together. That magic often hides in the finer textural details that you might be too close to hear anymore.

As a keyboardist and synthesist, I take an artisanal approach to every session - crafting hooks, textures, and layers designed specifically with your vision in mind.

Why Collaborate With Me?

My versatility means I can build on demo sketches or develop new ideas from scratch. My bread and butter is adding emotive synth parts, lush pads/strings, gritty bass, and catchy leads tailored precisely to fit the vibe.

My touring chops, sound design sensibilities, and quick turnarounds provide the versatile collaborative flair your music deserves, with an emphasis on analog warmth and movement over sterile perfection.

The best collaborations happen when I create with artists and producers who geek out over:

  • Gritty, vintage synth tones

  • Quirky ear candy hooks and layers

  • Nuanced soundscape progressions

Does that sound like you? Fill out the form below so we can have a chat.

About Me

I’m a multi-instrumentalist hailing from London, UK and currently based in Porto, Portugal but regularly in the U.K for sessions :)

I’ve been touring globally with the pop act 'The Human League’ for over 6 years now playing synths, keytar (seriously) and guitar. I’ve also toured with the Australian singer/songwriter Vancouver Sleep Clinic around Europe in August 2022.

Over the years, I’ve performed everywhere from Manchester Arena and Reading & Leeds Festival to countless smelly local bars - you know the vibe.

I'm diving into my own musical universe with Nick Tigar, an ambient piano and alternative electronic project. I’m an avid surfer (that’s why I moved to Portugal, after all) so if your’e in Porto, you may catch me on my balcony improvising with my synth rig.
