      About

      Thundering roots-rock, sun-baked blues, hilarious tales and beatbox world groove… Much more than your contemporary one man band, this LA based Aussie, Nathan Kaye, is a roaring vocalist, ball-tearing lapsteel slide guitar playing, funky didge blowing, body-popping, human beatbox freak with wit & spirit. Think John Butler on pills, Michael Franti on ‘shrooms and The Umbilical Brothers on fire. NK jumps between lap steel slide guitar, 12-string and 6 string acoustic, Didgeridoo and beat boxing, interweaving catchy hooks, Socio-enviro-conscious lyrics, and hilarious storytelling. Whether in a sea of fans on the festival circuit at Glastonbury Festival (UK), Edinburgh Fringe Festival (UK) or Lightning In a Bottle (USA), or in the backyard venues of regional Australia, Nathan inspires sweat to drip and hearts to open. Kaye's music will draw you in and make you think, make you laugh and make you move. It’s the best sweaty, dirty, sexy, good-vibed foot-stomp you'll get from one man. ...
