Nersik Ispiryan was born in Yerevan, Armenian SSR, Soviet Union. He graduated from School No.160 in Erebuni district of Yerevan. He studied at Yerevan Komitas State Conservatory from 1986 to 1992, while singing in Akunk («Ակունք») folk ensemble.[2] He moved to the United States in 1995, because of pressure from Levon Ter-Petrosyan's anti-nationalist government, against him and other pro-Dashnak figures in mid-1990s.
