Picture
Nathan’s diverse musical background has been central to the development of an eclectic yet focused style. His music is often described as intensely personal, but with an ability to connect with audiences in a way seldom seen in contemporary music. He has been the recipient of numerous awards including the Durington Composition Award and the Marvolene Bowe Speed Award, and the Salty Cricket Audience Choice Award.

Nathan is a post-modern composer and indie songwriter who writes both concert pieces and songs, respectively.
