Born in Christchurch, Nick Gaffaney attended the relatively early days of Ara Music Arts back when it occupied the magnificent (but leaky and drafty) St Asaph Street building in the mid 1990's.

Some of his fondest memories are of cycling home through the late-night Christchurch smog following a day's practice at what was affectionately known as "tech" by students of Nick's vintage.

Since leaving Christchurch in 1998, Nick has travelled a wide and varied path through his career, making music all over the world in situations as diverse as:

  • Free jazz and noise music in Canada.
  • Broken beat, electronic dance music in Auckland and London.
  • As an Artist in Residence at the Darpana Academy of Performing Arts in Ahmedabad, India.
  • As one of the most in-demand session and touring drummers in New Zealand with Anika Moa, Fat Freddy's Drop, Goldenhorse, Dimmer, Hollie Smith, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Ben Lee, and many more.
  • As a singer/drummer/keyboard bass player in his boundary-pushing rock project Cairo Knife Fight.
