“My musical style comes from influences & experiences throughout life. My childhood & teen years were not the easiest, so a lot of my vocal tone in certain songs, comes from those experiences.

As a kid I listened to a lot of hip-hop which gave me the lyrical side of my style, while a lot of the “big voices” in music such as Stevie Wonder, Terence Trent D’Arby, Otis Redding & Aretha Franklin have been my tutors on how to place the voice in certain songs and how to sing from the gut.

All I’ve ever done with my music to develop a different style from my influences, is to be true to myself and put what I feel into the music, not what is selling at the moment, which is what some artists do. Many people try to write songs exactly like the top ten artists and I see that as not being true to yourself. It is essentially just trying to make a quick buck by sounding like what’s “hot” at the minute.

I like to think that my live performances are unique because I give my all in each one I want to engage the crowd not just sing for myself…”

…Said Nathan in an interview for The Stage.

It would be fair to say that musically Nathan has been having a fantastic year building a grassroots fan base of all ages and performing at prestigious venues including The Jazz Cafe, where he opened for soul divas Jazmine Sullivan & Leela James, Ronnie Scotts (as a guest vocalist for a year), The Troubadour, The Pigalle, The Boisdale, Floriditas… the list goes on.

Nathan set the Luminaire on fire recently, opening for award nominee Melanie Fiona and taking her crowd by surprise with soul lifting performance alongside his six piece band!

His debut album “Student Of Life” is now availible on Itunes following the SOL EP released earlier last year.

The stand out 1st single ”Reach Out (You’ve Got a Friend)” attained a number 15 peak in Music Week’s Urban Chart with a fantastic remix from SedSoul and the follow up single ”For You”, also remixed by the trusted SedSoul crew, was a Music Week top twenty club hit.

He performed a live acoustic set on The Joanne Good Show (BBC Radio London) and was invited back (on air) to perform with his band. On 22nd May Nathan blew Jo’s listening audience away with his performance. Jo was proud to say that she had never had a reaction like that with listeners texting & emailing in all throughout the show to find out more about him.

The performance at the Secret Garden Party, in the summer of 2011, was hailed as the best debut act they had seen since the festival was born.

This year it looks like a talented young artist is on his way to a break through, with UK Soul Power!
