Nicholas Moreau

Course: History (1st Year, Oriel)

Voicepart: Bass

'You can travel the world' sings Nicholas in Cali, and boy is he a man of his word. He's conquered every corner of it. He hails from Canada, he's performed in Australia and New Zealand, and he's now touched down in Oxford to bring those Brobdingnagian bass vocals to Out of the Blue! He goes by Nicholas, but we prefer Saint Nicholas. As seen in our Christmas music video, he's our resident Santa of the group, and he comes bearing gifts which even Mr Claus himself couldn't manage. With an impressive range spanning both the bass and baritone registers and a silky tone, Nicholas' classically and chorally trained voice is as sweet as the maple syrup of his motherland. He impressed with his Round 3 rendition of 'Story of My Life' and we had no doubt in our minds that there was only One Direction his OOTB journey would be going in. We needed Moreau-v his voice and so do you! Not to mention his charming though often acerbic wit, reminiscent of a Frenchman and fellow bass in the group's recent past. But deep down he's a softie — who else would offer up an entire Colin the Caterpillar for free post-gig? Nicholas studies history but we've studied his future with the group. Spoiler: it's looking bright.
