Nick 13 (born 1975 in San Jose, California) is the guitarist, vocalist, and main songwriter of psychobilly band Tiger Army.
Nick 13 grew up listening to his father's 50's rock-and-roll records. As a teenager, he was introduced to punk rock through skateboarding and the local straight edge scene. Nick attended Leigh High School and Ukiah High School with future AFI and Tiger Army stand-up bass player Geoff Kresge, who left the band in 2004 and then returned in 2008. After High School, Nick 13 attended UC Berkeley. In 1991, he formed his first band, Influence 13, with Kresge and Jade Puget, now of AFI. He formed Tiger Army in 1995. The band has released four studio albums, had a #1 single on L.A.'s KROQ FM and continues to tour internationally.
In recent years, Nick has expanded into acting and has appeared in Mary Jane's Not a Virgin Anymore (1997), Live Freaky! Die Freaky! (2006) as the voice of TV Reporter #1, and in David Lynch's Inland Empire (2006) as an archaeologist.
