Nick Beggs
From Free net encyclopedia
Nick Beggs (born December 15, 1961) has pursued his own musical career since Kaja (post Kajagoogoo) split up. In the early 1990s, Beggs played bass for the Celtic rock band Iona. His primary instruments are bass and Chapman Stick.
Beggs was born in Winslow, Buckinghamshire in the United Kingdom. His mother died when he was a young lad and was left to bring up his sister almost single handedly while his father paid the children little attention. He left school and immediately took up work as a dustman to provide an income for him and his sister, Jackie. It is this bond that has remained over the years and now, some years later, he lives a few minutes walk from her.
He is a devoted father and musician and enjoys his work.
Words of wisdom from Nick are "If you can market a band called Kajagoogoo, you can market anything".
He has worked with many top pop artists and has his own web site.
