As a graduate of the University of North Texas, Nick Werth has a diverse and extensive appreciation for the percussive arts.  During his schooling, he was fortunate to study with Christopher Deane, Mark Ford, Paul Rennick, Ed Smith, and Poovalur Sriji.  In 2000, 2001, and 2002, Nick was the Percussive Arts Society International Convention Multi-Tenor Solo Champion.  In 2002, he placed third in the Drum Corps International Multi-Tenor Solo Competition.

From 2003 through 2006, Nick taught the Phantom Regiment tenor line, which was awarded Best Percussion in 2006.  Nick also helped the Flower Mound High School Drumline win two PASIC Drumline Championships (2006 and 2007) and place third in the 2008 PASIC Drumline Competition.  As a clinician, Nick has travelled to Arizona, Indiana, Missouri, Tennessee, and Texas to share his love for percussion.  Nick composes and arranges for solo vibraphone and the marching percussion ensemble.  He currently plays drumset with an improvisational fusion group called Hatch.
