Николас Джеймс Стерлинг (англ. Nicholas James Sterling; род. 18 июля 1990) — гитарист и автор песен из Месы, Аризона. Начал играть на гитаре в возрасте 7 лет; к 10 годам выпустил свой первый альбом, Ten[1]. В том же году выступал на одной сцене с Элисом Купером на концерте в Канун Нового Года[2]. Когда Нику исполнилось 13, гитарист Дэйв Мэйсон отметил его талант. В 2005 он выпустил второй альбом, Life Goes On. Работая над ним, Стерлинг, словно будучи «группой из одного человека», сам сыграл на всех инструментах и сам пел. Оба альбома он записал также сам. Его третий, под названием Invisible, был издан в 2010 году.
