Nygel began his musical journey over 20 years ago when he picked up his first guitar. Piano, bass, and drums soon followed the self-taught musician, who continued his passion for music as an assistant engineer/producer assistant for legendary producer, GGGarth Richardson (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rise Against, Rage Against the Machine). Eventually he moved on to become GGGarth’s studio partner, studio manager and head engineer at The Farm Studios.
