Folk Off: Nathan Moore vs. Tom Freund

Mr. Hat and Amnesia present a Folk-Off, featuring two terrific traveling troubadours- Nathan Moore (Surprise Me Mr. Davis, ThaMuseMeant, The Whole Other) & Tom Freund Music.

A bearer of the coveted Telluride Troubadour Award (2009), Nathan Moore is a pioneer of modern day troubadouring and a wellspring of songs like you wouldn't believe. His love of poetry, songs and mischief has shaped his colorful, prolific career. He's a founding member of both ThaMuseMeant and Surprise Me Mr. Davis, two bands that have toured the country extensively. There are a lot of folks out there that will tell you that one of these two bands is one of their favorite bands of all time. Between his solo career and his bands, Nathan has released 22 albums. From storytelling songwriter to rock band front man (with a dash of magic here and there), Nathan has done it all with a disarming honesty and lyrical revelry that few could pull off.

His songs have been featured on series such as Better Things, Parenthood and One Tree Hill, and for his latest television project, forthcoming Amazon show Pete The Cat, Freund has co-written, sung and played songs with Elvis Costello, KT Tunstall, Dave Matthews and Diana Krall, and has also co-written the shows theme song with creator Swampy Marsh (Phineas and Ferb).
