Biography

Nick was born and raised in Stillwater, Oklahoma. His musical career was first inspired through his own sister's music collection such as Queen and Def Leppard. He first started to play the guitar when he was seven. When he was a teen, he was invited to play with his band at a party where Tyson Ritter was pretending to be the bouncer. Ritter, seeing that Wheeler's band didn't have a bassist, joined with them, starting a close friendship with Wheeler, although Ritter had never played a bass guitar in his life. The two traveled to New York City to record their first album. Later, they added Mike Kennerty and Chris Gaylor to their live show. Their first album, for which Nick played drums and guitar, released many hits such as "Swing, Swing", "Time Stands Still" and "The Last Song". After a one and a half year hiatus, they released their second album, Move Along, this time with Interscope Records instead of Doghouse Record which released their first self-titled album. The CD sold much better than the first album, with Top 20 hit, "Move Along" and Top 10 hits, "It Ends Tonight" and "Dirty Little Secret". He has toured with The All-American Rejects in two tours in 2006, the Black Cloud and Underdogs tour opening for Fall Out Boy. Later on, The All-American Rejects had a headlining tour, the Tournado. Also in 2006, Nick played guitar for the band Snakes on A Plane. He took one semester at Oklahoma State University and then dropped out.
