Nicholas "Nic" John Cester (born July 6, 1979 in Melbourne, Australia) is an Australian musician, best known for his lead vocals in the rock band Jet. The band was formed several years ago and is comprised of Nic (vocals), his brother Chris Cester (drums), Cameron Muncey (guitar), and Mark Wilson(bass). When Jet first began performing in clubs, Nic was working in a Melbourne factory as a forklift operator. The band was signed to record label Elektra after their debut single, "Take It Or Leave It", became a hit. Nic currently tours with Jet for most of the year, but when he's not traveling he hangs out in his home town of Melbourne. He formerly attended St. Bedes High School and cites The Beatles as his greatest musical influence.
Nicholas Cester is a founder of the supergroup The Wrights.
In late October, Nic was diagnosed with vocal nodules. Jet rescheduled several European dates, allowing him time to recover.
