Nick Jaina is a musician and author originally from Sacramento who has lived in Portland, New York, and New Orleans. He was an Oregon Book Award finalist in 2015 for his memoir Get It While You Can. His writing has appeared in Atlantic Monthly, McSweeney's Quarterly and the journal Oregon Humanities. He co-founded and was music director for a ballet company in New York City called Satellite that involved dancers from Juilliard and the New York City Ballet and performed at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, garnering praise from The New York Times. He has composed scores for feature films and documentaries, including All Sorts, Cement Suitcase, and Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire. His song "A Wolf In Wolf's Clothing" appears in season one of the television series The Roundabouts, a spin-off of Outer Banks. He co-created the art installation SPEKTRUM in the mountains of Santa Cruz, which led to a string of sold-out shows, a book of the same name, and a subsequent tour of a hundred intimate tea service music readings that offered people a chance for a profound transformation.

He has toured the world performing his magical combination of music and words to rapt audiences . His work is a healing balm for the nervous system, pulled from the reaches of Dreamland.
