Nick Herbison is a folk-rock artist from Hawke’s Bay, Aotearoa, whose music reflects his philosophical outlook and the internal weather systems he navigates. With acoustic guitar at the core of his songwriting, Herbison crafts introspective, life-affirming songs that explore courage, self-worth, and the ongoing journey toward inner peace. His style has been largely influenced by folk, blues, rock, roots and RnB.
Most recently Nick embarked on a national tour of Aotearoa supporting Melbourne blues troubadour Shaun Kirk during September 2025. Since then Herbison has played as a solo performer at festivals in Auckland and Rotorua (Morph Fest and Sauna Fest).
Herbison's solo performances often demonstrate his sensational ability on the acoustic guitar and his lower toned, smooth vocals. The use of a loop pedal and foot percussion has been a recent addition to his solo set. With influences such as Jack Johnson, Ben Howard, Matt Corby, Ben Harper and Passenger, to name a few, Nick will often include a cover or two during his sets.
'Seek and Don't Forget' is the album that he will be celebrating on his handful of shows around the North Island throughout July and August.
Carl o Yãng, an indie folk singer songwriter from Auckland, will be supporting the show with his heartfelt and whimsical solo performance.
