Originating from Charleston, SC, Nolan Tecklenburg is a jazz pianist with a love for New Orleans. He began by studying piano at the age of 5 and continued his studies at Loyola University down in New Orleans. While in the Big Easy he was able to craft his own sound through listening and playing with some of the best local musicians. He spearheaded a project called NuSpeak, which would go on to play at Tipitina’s and other local venues. At the same time he would gig with his trio throughout the city and end up playing at Jazz Fest as well. After graduating from college he focused on composing throughout the pandemic as a way to exhibit his art.
I had the pleasure of witnessing Nolan perform for my event and it was a captivating experience. From beginning to end he showcased remarkable technical skill and emotional depth, seamlessly blending melody and improvisation. The chemistry with the accompanying musicians enhanced the performance, making it even more engaging. Their fresh interpretations of classics, especially Take Five, brought new life to familiar tunes. Overall, Nolan is a standout talent in the jazz scene. If he's available for you event, you don’t want to miss him!
Response from Nolan Tecklenburg:
Thank you so much!
