Nick leads two critically acclaimed ensembles, the funkified electric jazz group SNAGGLE and the hard-swinging modern jazz group NICK MACLEAN QUARTET. Both groups have released multi-award winning albums and with them Nick has toured right across Canada as well as internationally, performing for countless audiences as well as running jazz improvisation workshops for students and listeners eager to learn more about the artform. From Miles Davis & Herbie Hancock to Weather Report & Snarky Puppy, Maclean’s musical influences are diverse. Maclean's solo piano work delves into his reflective and soul-searching realm of expression, taking influences from jazz piano legends like Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, and Brad Mehldau, as well as that of his two divergent ensembles: SNAGGLE and NICK MACLEAN QUARTET. Maclean, who's groups have frequently been lauded for the strength of their collective improvisatory vision, continues in that unconstrained spirit of spontaneous and courageous personal exploration in order to perform rich and prismatic interpretations of originals, standards, and other contemplations delivered in the moment. Nick Maclean's debut 18-track, double disk solo album "Can You Hear Me?" features 7 Maclean-penned compositions, 8 standards and 2 spontaneous improvisations, all recorded at the renowned Chalet Studio in Uxbridge. Produced by "Canada's preeminent jazz trumpet player" (NYC Village Voice) the highly decorated BROWNMAN ALI, this new double album was released in Canada on Oct 31, 2021, and internationally on Dec 3, 2021 on Browntasauras Records. Considered a protege of BROWNMAN ALI (GURU, Beyonce, Jay-Z, Quincy Jones), Nick has studied and performed extensively with the internationally acclaimed jazz-trumpet iconoclast and features him in both of his ensembles. Maclean and Brownman have become collaborative partners across numerous musical endeavours, most recently in the NICK MACLEAN QUARTET FEAT BROWNMAN ALI's 2023 Juno nominated release "CONVERGENCE". Maclean is signed to Brownman's NYC-based jazz record label BROWNTASAURAS RECORDS, an independent record label widely regarded as a vanguard for Canadian, forward-thinking jazz, and where Maclean works as a managing partner out of their Toronto offices. The future is bright for this young visionary as he continues his upward ascent in jazz artforms of all shapes and sizes. ​JOIN MY MAILING LIST (show announcements, free giveaways, and other fun stuff!) : http://eepurl.com/XVCO5 LINKS : http://www.NicholasMaclean.com http://www.SnaggleMusic.com http://www.Browntasauras.com
