Biography
Andrew DeNicola – Composer & Multi-Instrumentalist
Andrew DeNicola is a passionate composer and multi-instrumentalist whose musical journey began with the saxophone. His early dedication to the instrument led him to Berklee College of Music, where he studied under jazz luminaries including Billy Pierce, George Garzone, and Greg Hopkins. Immersed in Berklee’s vibrant jazz scene, Andrew developed a strong foundation in performance, improvisation, and composition.
Following his time at Berklee, Andrew moved to New York City—the heart of the jazz world—to further hone his craft. There, he immersed himself in the local music scene, performing in a wide variety of settings, from intimate private events to energetic big band showcases. As both a sideman and a bandleader, Andrew built a reputation for his versatility and musicality.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Andrew took the opportunity to deepen his studies, enrolling at Queens College. Under the mentorship of world-renowned artists such as Antonio Hart, Michael Mossman, Tim Armacost, and Dennis Mackrel, he refined his artistic voice and solidified his understanding of jazz at a deeper level.
Post-graduation, Andrew continued performing across New York City, though like many artists, he faced challenges making a consistent living. A personal connection opened an exciting new chapter in his career: performing on the world’s premier cruise ship, Icon of the Seas. As part of a six-piece jazz ensemble, Andrew now shares his music with audiences from around the globe, night after night.
Whether composing or performing, Andrew DeNicola is dedicated to creating meaningful, unforgettable musical experiences—connecting with listeners through every note.
