Nicholas J. Ugo
Modern Class percussionist
Nick has been playing drums and percussion for 15 years and has been with Lincolnshire Academy of Dance as a percussionist since 2002. Nick attended Columbia College Chicago for Music Performance.
He has been impressed over the years by returning students’ progress and hopes he can bring a continuing dynamic through music, contributing to the students’ on-going enthusiastic efforts.
Nick is ecstatic as always to share in the experience of music, deepen the foundation of rhythm in the students through percussion, and apply it to dance here at the Academy. He is also thrilled to accompany Hip Hop classes this year for the first time as a drummer, in addition to Modern classes as a percussionist.
Nick currently plays with various Rock and R&B ensembles. His past credits include ‘Tony & Tina’s Wedding’ in Chicago at Piper’s Alley.
