Nathaniel Talbot Album Release show w/ Nick Drummond
Doors @ 6:00pm / Music @ 7pm
$10 Advanced/ $12 Day of Show
Nathaniel Talbot is excited to release his 4th solo record, "Swamp Rose and Honeysuckle Vine", full of intricate fingerstyle guitar work and poetry about the natural world, inspired by his life as an organic farmer.
With influences ranging from prodigious guitar pickers such as Doc Watson, Leo Kotke, and Kelly Joe Phelps, to the more soulful folk poetry of Elliott Smith, Gillian Welch, and Paul Simon, the music represent a unique synthesis of old-time picking and the indie here-and-now. Nathaniel combines masterful finger-style guitar work with thoughtful, melodic vocal lines to create a sonic experience that is truly fresh and impactful. "Swamp Rose and Honeysuckle Vine," showcases Talbot's poetry and fingerstyle guitar playing in a more intimate form than his previous records, preserving the raw, acoustic energy of his live performances. For this show he will be accompanied by Sam Howard on bass, as well as several talented guests from Whidbey Island.
Press:
"With enveloping lyrical stories and a voice that elicits the ghosts of folk's storied past, Talbot cuts through the throngs of the Pacific Northwest's folk-pop hopefuls and stands high above in class unto himself." SSG MUSIC
"Challenging what folk music is capable of, Talbot's powerful, uplifting voice harnesses a country twang complemented by lush acoustic finger-picking and a violin that feels like it was birthed next to a babbling brook in the mountains" SEATTLE WEEKLY
"When poet and songwriter Nathaniel Talbot, stepped on stage, the sparks began to fly. His strong and expressive baritone, powerful, unexpected chord changes and delicate fingerpicking style and Anna's rich fiddle tone, vocal harmonies and mandolin were the perfect compliment. The superbly crafted songs, sometimes upbeat and humorous , sometimes powerfully rhythmic, sometimes dark and dissonant were masterfully arranged." Tim Noah
"Nathaniel's songs were intimately rooted to the earth, tied to the cycles of nature, and somewhat mystifying" NO DEPRESSION
