Big Blue Bazooka

Hi, I am Nicholas 'Nick' Kempson, a self-taught musician from Melbourne, Australia.

Originally I had no thoughts or intentions for making music, I even had almost no interest in music at all until I was around 19 or 20 wherein I discovered classics like Pet sounds by The Beach Boys.

Near the end of 2018 my uncle compelled me to play Bass guitar on a new years day jam. I had no idea how to play it but he showed me where the G and D notes were and told me to “just keep playing those notes”, and so I did. This must have placed some kind of desire in me subconsciously because a couple months later I ended buying a cheap bass guitar and it all went from there.
After a few months I found just playing was not enough and so I decided to start trying to make music.

The music I make is very different from one day to the next, resulting in many different moods, feeling and genres. Overall I would say I generally make happy and upbeat sounding pop rock style music but my instrument use over time is very eclectic, from guitars to synths, to folk sounds and kiddy percussion. I also dabble in making weird, experimental music and chiptunes

One of my other projects is a duo band with my uncle. We are called <a href="spotify:artist:2Uu8DJ8iXauwrHTgFjxnxp" data-name="Big Carrot">Big Carrot</a> and make mostly pop rock and folk pop music (so far) with some experimental influences.

I hope in the future I can keep improving and making more killer albums.

I am also on Bandcamp, Soundcloud and Youtube so be sure to check me out if you use those platforms.
