Nick Schofield is a Gatineau-based musician, producer, and technical director with a BFA in Electroacoustic Studies from Concordia University.
Nick works at the SAW Centre in Ottawa, an artist-run gallery and venue, where he oversees technical aspects of their concerts, events, and exhibitions. In addition, he is the technical director for Debaser’s Pique festival—a quarterly arts event celebrating underground artists.
Nick is an active musician who has performed at Place des Arts for MUTEK Montreal, the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, SXSW in Austin, and the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, opening for artists like Angel Olsen, Colin Stetson, Hauschka, and Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith. His albums have received press coverage from Bandcamp Daily, CBC Q, Exclaim!, Montreal Gazette, and Aquarium Drunkard, which described him as a “dazzling electronic artist.”
As a solo musician, Nick Schofield releases ambient music via the Backward Music label. His debut album Water Sine (2018) is an antidote to insomnia, while his sophomore album Glass Gallery (2021) channels inspiration from the architecture and artwork of the National Gallery of Canada. His new release Ambient Ensemble (2024) features distant piano, vintage synths, and faded orchestral arrangements resonating in spacious natural reverb.
Nick has been an artist-in-residence at the Banff Centre, and his artistic practice has received support from the Canada Council for the Arts, the SOCAN Foundation, and FACTOR. He actively records and performs with his projects Saxsyndrum, Rêves sonores, and Best Fern. Artists he has worked with include Devon Welsh, Eve Parker Finley, Ada Lea, L CON, Cedric Noel, Pony Girl, Alex Nicol, Orchidae, Year of Glad, Ky, BUCKO, and Alexia Avina.
Nick Schofield has worked for CBC, Red Bull Music Academy, and POP Montreal. For ten years, he hosted Underground Sounds on CKUT, which was frequently voted Best Radio Host and Best Radio Show by CULT Montreal.
