Nathan in a Nutshell

Nathan Moore is a fearless songwriter and performer whose infectious indie-folk sound takes listeners on a thrilling flight into the vastness of musical and emotional possibility. When he’s not ranting about social injustice, reveling with Mardis Gras abandon or launching a peaceful revolution, Moore is writing about maintaining childlike wonder or finding lasting love. Nathan has spent most of his adult life writing, recording and touring with the band ThaMuseMeant and Surprise Me Mr. Davis, accumulating not only the skills and experience of a seasoned veteran, but also a songbook of over a thousand personal yet resoundingly universal songs. And while the critics love to compare him to literary greats, it’s always with a nod to his uniqueness. “As troubadours go, they don’t come much truer than Nathan Moore. Nathan has a genuine communion with the lyric and craft of song…an emotive and experienced voice influenced largely by Dylan, Tom Waits,Bukowski, Leonard Cohen and years of travel…” –JamBase

Moore launched a solo career in 2007, and John Conquest of Third Coast Music who knew Nathan during his early years busking in Austin TX had this to say: “Going solo makes a good deal of sense as every project he’s been involved in has relied heavily on his extraordinary talents and charisma. Ten years ago, I said ‘Moore’s songwriting is a combination of his intensity with an unpretentious mastery of language, literary depth, sardonic humor, incisive insight and unflinching honesty,’ and that’s even more true today.” With Nathan’s truthful and eternally-optimistic hand on the wheel, it’s always a magical ride.
