Arthur Nicholson


Arthur is the son of Brian Nicolson, one of Shetland's finest guitarists, so his musical genes were aligned from a very early age.

He started playing at the edge of five and since school age has been forming and playing in his own bands.

Whilst studying music in Edinburgh, Arthur made a musical name in the city both in a band called 'Little Green Machine' with fellow Shetlander Jack Sandison and also as a singer songwriter in his own right.
