Career
The Parker Brothers
Nolan's earliest work was with The Parker Brothers [1]. also did a tour with digger
The Honor System
He played on The Honor System's debut album, Single File, and subsequent EP, 100% Synthetic. His playing often complemented vocalist Dan Hanaway's usually lower, more rhythmic sound with organic higher-register leads and arpeggios, frequently featuring bending, sliding and double-stops. However, he was not limited to lead guitar; the two's trading of parts played a large part in the band's sound during his tenure. Nolan left the band some time before their second album, The Rise And Run, and was replaced by Tyler Wiseman, whose arrival heralded a shift of the band's sound in a heavier direction, with less focus on melody.
Alkaline Trio
He was the tour manager for Alkaline Trio and played second guitar for them live. These parts are usually written and played on record by the band's guitarist Matt Skiba; however, Nolan received writing/recording credits for lead guitar on "Sadie" from the One Man Army split and, later, Crimson.
