About Nicholas: He was featured as young Tommy in the New York exclusive premier of The Who’s Tommy: A Rock Ballet at Adelphi University from April 14-17. He also sang for a CocaCola commercial and performed at this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Key to Awesomeness: "I’m not that cocky to call myself awesome; but my key is my talent. It’s gotten me far. This past year I sang for a CocaCola commercial as well as performed at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. I also got to sing at Jazz at Lincoln Center and perform in an off-Broadway Musical. I’m working my way up and it’s going pretty well," Nicholas said.
