Popular Portland-based artist Nate Botsford's hybrid style is a lifetime in the
making and the backbone of his latest release Hourglass. Nate began playing
piano when he was only five, but the Taylor acoustic guitar given to him by his
dad at age 14 became the instrument that has accompanied him everywhere and
helped to lay the foundation for his musical career. That career has seen up to
300 shows a year for the last five years: from coffeehouses to mainstages, Nate
has pleased audiences with his feel-good tunes and relatable lyrics. Nate has
shared the stage with the eclectic likes of Eric Hutchinson, Barenaked Ladies,
James Bay, Ingrid Michaelson, and Lukas Graham, and calls upon his influences of
Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, and his big-band pianist grandfather while
crafting his music. His songs have received regular rotation radio play and won
numerous awards, including 2015 Project Aloft national songwriting contest
judged by industry professionals. A 25-city tour in 2016 took Nate and his music
to new audiences, and it only gets bigger from there. Nate's dream is to share his
music with a wider national audience and to leave with his listeners a lasting
impression of singable melodies and lyrics that, as Nate says, "Can feel were
written just for them to find a glimmer of hope." Find Nate's full-length release
Hourglass including the single "This Is Your Moment," co-written with acclaimed
producer Billy Mann, on Itunes, Amazon and CD Baby.
