“The songs of Nathan K. have a disarming sweetness to them and come at you from an angle that is uniquely his own.” – Ron Sexsmith

Bio:
Nathan K. is a Midwesterner from Michigan living in Nashville TN. His simple acoustic folk songs put life under a microscope to illuminate the overlooked – the funny parts of grief along with the sad parts of the funny moments. As a member of the acclaimed band Stepdad, he has performed on large stages across US and Canada with songs featured in a smattering of placements like FIFA 13, Weeds, Mindy Project, a BMW ad campaign – but lately he has been performing in more intimate venues with his wife Sara Beth Go who adds Omnichord sparkles, harmonies, and nudges him to wrap it up when his hilarious stories start to get too long. 

Nathan has shared the stage with Advance Base, Soccer Mommy, Jeff Pianki, Mary Bragg, Robby Hecht, Ratboys, Michigander, Esther Rose, SUSTO, Amanda Shires, Gatlin, Johnny Delaware, Nathan Evans Fox, Dean Johnson, Willy Tea Taylor, Dylan Earl, Bob Holmes (of SUSS), Stelth Ulvang (of Lumineers), Sean Barna, Fred Thomas, Frontier Ruckus, May Erlewine, Joe Hertler & the Rainbow Seekers, Joelton Mayfield, Illiterate Light, Bendrix Littleton, Breathe Owl Breathe, Ruthie Collins, Stephanie Sammons, Helena Hallberg, and many more.

“Nathan K. plays the kind of earnest, melancholy, emo adjacent, folk-informed indie rock we can’t get enough of.” – No Country For New Nashville”

“a curious mix of sadness and joy, haunting in the sense that it lingers but not completely morose or scary. A nostalgic and poignant amalgamation of fondness and love and regret, something crushing yet life affirming.” (Wake The Deaf)

“on the cusp of being part of the next generation of artists to achieve success along the lines of Bright Eyes, Sufjan Stevens, Jens Lekman, etc.”(Songs Illinois)
