A Track by The Humans Nature, Nic Leo's Alternative Rock Band.

Ugly Sweater Weather

“I Am Open” is a spiritual folk hymn layered with warmth — voice, guitar, and ambient textures combine in a moment of intimate surrender.

I Am Open

“Papa’s Proud” is the emotional centerpiece of Pathways, my debut solo album. It’s a song about reckoning with legacy — the pain we carry, the healing we choose, and the quiet hope that someone is proud of who we’ve become.

Rooted in folk but shaded with gospel and soul, this track unfolds slowly and deliberately, like a confession in candlelight. I kept it long and uncut, because every second matters.

Papa's Proud

“Staring You Down” is a soul-baring road song about leaving behind old beliefs and burning bridges — literally and figuratively. It’s got gospel-tinged harmonies, a raw acoustic core, and a slow build that lets the emotion breathe. This one’s for anyone who’s left something behind but still feels it staring back at them. Think Hozier meets early Ray LaMontagne, with a touch of desert dust.
