Nick Virag

Nick Virag's deep rooted folk sound, mixed with his innate sense of rhythm, results in an enchanting blend of music that listeners just can't get enough of. With his funk-ridden strumming patterns and his soulful voice, he strays away from the mundane norm that most solo acoustic musicians tend to fall into. Five minutes at one of his shows will certainly have you rethinking how acoustic rock ought to sound.

If you had to choose one word to describe Nick's playing style, "crafty" would be it. He is constantly dreaming up new ways to create sounds that will keep his audiences enthralled. In some instances, he incorporates the use of a loop station. When he does, he is able to compliment his songs with a rhythmic landscape that has a truly organic vibe. All of his music is self-produced, so as to preserve his creative vision. "Nick is a budding songwriter, with an honest approach and thoughtful lyrics"- Charley Orlando.

Nick Virag got his start as a student at Le Moyne College, playing at a cafe located on campus. He then began to expand his repertoire, with a catalog of original songs that he would later bring on the road with him. The most important component of his musical journey is making sure that his songs see new ears as often as possible. So far, he has developed a presence in New York City, Boston, Providence, and Syracuse. He has shared the stage with notable artists including Charley Orlando, The Como Brother's Band, and The Broadcast. 

It is important that when Nick plays, he evokes a feeling from his listeners. His music is used as a platform to convey his message, with a common theme of love and life.
