Nathan Moore

As songwriters go some have that magic touch. Each song written has that feeling of being a cut above. Troubadour Nathan Moore has that aura and his treasure trove of nearly a thousand songs contains endless gems. For over a decade, Moore's songs have consistently moved closer in impact and timelessness to those of his heroes - Bob Dylan, John Prine, Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen. As a personality, he has the charisma, wit and charming spirit to put crowds and listeners under his spell. The songs he pens have a poetic brilliance that is combined with melodies of an engaging and complex nature. Moore honed his craft in Austin, TX and Santa Fe, NM with a band he formed called ThaMuseMeant, which bridged folk and Americana sounds. The band played on the H.O.R.D.E. tour in 1996 and toured relentlessly thereafter. All the while Moore released solo records and has blossomed into an excellent solo performer. His latest solo release - after a hiatus from the music industry - is entitled In His Own Worlds and is out on Frogville Records, which he co-founded five years ago. Moore is one of the best unknown songwriters and with any luck his songs will be as well known as those of his idols. Listen for yourself at NathanMoore.org.
