    66: Nic Bagherpour - President, Denton Music and Arts Collaborative
    2020/10/08
    Nic was born and raised in Wichita Falls, but his family has deep roots in Denton. Music has been one of his lifelong passions, the viola being his first musical instrument. He then picked up the guitar in his early teens like almost every other dude in the country. He moved to Denton in 2004 on his 25th birthday, and part of what inspired him to move to Denton was the music scene and the fact that some of his favorite bands are from Denton. Nic co-founded DMAC with Andy Knapik and a handful of their friends and 35 Denton colleagues in 2017; the first meetings were potlucks at Nic’s house. He lives in north Denton with his wife and their three dogs Radha (aka “Baby Girl”), Annie (aka “Annie Banannie”), and Digby (aka “Doofus”). He is very well known for his ability to smoke a brisket.
