Nicholas Landrum

Nicholas Landrum (he/him) creates beautiful music for complicated people. He is a classical post-minimalist composer, bass-baritone vocalist, electronic producer, multi-instrumental performer, and educator born in Philadelphia, and currently residing in Minneapolis. Nicholas has an affinity for the extremes. Inspired by dualities, finding solace in both science and religion, the organic and the unnatural, absolute art and intense narrative works. Nicholas has always been an extrovert, in love with the art of communication, with a deep need for human connection through art and everyday life. Much of his work focuses on influences from the profound, the use of generative mathematics, analog synthesis, and his first love, the human voice. In addition to his compositional career, and in the spirit of exploring dualities, Nicholas is both an avid church musician and pop artist, releasing the latter under the moniker “my idle little fingers”. In any given week, you can find him performing a basement show, an evensong, or lecturing at the Minnesota Orchestra.
