Introducing Nick Able, the musician, artist and international performer behind the weaving melodic and harmonic structures of The Numa Collective. His music elevates the soundscape with beauty, virtuosity, improvisation and takes you on a sound journey experience thats is new, fresh and unique.
Drawing on more than 10 years of international touring with the great Maestro Ravi Shankar whom Nick studied, lived and performed globally with for more than 10 years. He lived and breathed music in the ancient guru–shishya tradition of learning and performs with the spirit of his great iconic guru, named the ‘godfather of world music’ by George Harrison.
He also performed for 20 years with Anoushka Shankar in various formats from tanpura (Indian drone instrument) to live electronics headlining festivals such as WOMAD.
Nick brings a deeply meditivave element to The Numa Collective and his many years of training in Indian classical music having re-emerged into music after a dark period and being heavily influenced by sound baths, frequency music and more than 2000 hours of deep frequency meditation that pulled him out of a very dark place. 💫
Inspired and renewed he set out to create and perform his own style of sound baths utilising live electronics, performing improvised sitar and acoustic guitars to add a melodic element to his sound journeys which takes the listener into a deep state of peace, tranquility and calm.
