NICK HENDERSON has been blazing his own trail in the entertainment world for over a decade. A proud Chicago resident, NICK has earned the prestigious title of "triple threat," boasting a diverse resume that includes appearances on NBC's *Chicago Med*, national commercials, and over 8 million TikTok views. His versatility has also shone through as the Stellar Awards 2021 red carpet correspondent and with unforgettable solo performances across Chicagoland's iconic venues, including Wrigley Field, Allstate Arena, House of Blues Chicago, and BET's Black Women's Expo.
NICK made his recording debut in 2015 with his single "Forever." While studying Communication at Saint Xavier University, he began to make a name for himself on campus, where buzz around his music started to build. In 2016, NICK released his mixtape Black & White, a 10-track project highlighting his love for dance music and EDM while staying true to his R&B and gospel roots. This blend of styles laid the foundation for Nick's signature sound. That same year, he co-headlined at the House of Blues Chicago, delivering a showstopping performance with dancers, a live band, and a sold-out audience.
NICK’s momentum as a performing artist within Chicago reached new heights subsequently, with over 100 solo shows to date. His star continues to rise, and he shows no signs of slowing down.
“NOT A LOT OF THINGS THAT I CAN’T DO”…
In addition to his music career, NICK is a passionate advocate for mental health and emotional intelligence. He currently serves as the Program Director of Heal Chicago, a nonprofit dedicated to advancing anti-marginalization and emotional resilience. In this role, he oversees the Professionals for Progress Network, a community that empowers professionals to build inclusive workplaces and drive meaningful social change.
Now in 2025, NICK has built a strong following and reputation for his undeniable star quality. His notable works include the 2022 NICK OF TIME LIVE VISUAL and fan-favorite singles like "Soul Tied," "ICON!," "LAST TIME!," and his latest release, "SUPERSTAR!" On July 26, 2024 (28th birthday), NICK shut down Penny Whistle Tavern nightclub in Pilsen, Illinois, performing to a packed audience on the same day his single dropped.
