“There’s no better release for me than creating. I just had to do it, I had that instinct.The minute she left, I was alone in my apartment. I was like, ‘I have to come and get out of the city and write,’” he explained in his Last Year Was Complicated documentary.

Nick added, “I came up here [to Mammoth Mountain] with my trusted group of collaborators. Immediately I was OK. I’ve tried talking to people and doing that thing, but I don’t know.
