  I have an Ovation acoustic/electric 6 string guitar as my main instrument, Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster 6 strings, a Fender Precision bass guitar, a Crate 50 Watt bass amp, a Fender 160 Watt amplifier, a Korg Keyboard and a Fender 250 Watt sound system with Shure microphones; all professional equipment.

I have over forty years experience as an entertainer and do my own promotion with newspaper club notices, posters, flyers and internet calendars. I have reliable transportation, a current passport and a current, clean drivers’ license.

Two of my instrumental Jazz compositions; "Honeymoon Suite" and "Lennys' Tune" were featured in the American Film Institutes' 2003 AFI Los Angeles International Film Festival and pre-event television commercials for ten days.

Played Guitar, bass guitar and sang lead and background vocals with various Rock, Jazz, Country, Blues, Pop, Dance, Wedding and showcase bands from 1964 to 1998 in New Jersey, New York, Florida, Connecticut, Bermuda, Massachusetts and California.

“Ron Nicolai is an outstanding singer, guitarist and entertainer, who has a carefully crafted performance which appeals to all age groups. I find him extremely likeable and that he possesses a great audience rapport.” – Ivan Hubbard, Watstein/Hubbard Entertainment Agency

“Nicolai displayed a wide range of styles…quiet ballads mix with solid rave-ups and only a quick guitar change breaks the action. His original songs are brisk and tight, with a feel for that AM radio sound that breeds success.” – Jim Zebora, Meriden Record-Journal, Ct.
