Nate Hall takes the roots of American music and the heritage of the Appalachian culture and turns them it into stripped down yet powerful ballads. Also known as the frontman for psychedelic cult outfit U.S. Christmas, Nate Hall will visit Amplifest in his first time in Portugal for a solo performance. Since he is a Neurot signee, here’s what Neurosis’ own Scott Kelly had to say about Nate Hall:

The river doesn’t ever stop. It is a continuous bringer of whatever it touches, and whomever is chosen to step within its waters.
The first time I heard Nate Hall’s voice I knew that I was hearing something that would haunt me forever. The unmistakable sound of mountains’ wind and the desperation and anguish of truth and experience.
Authenticity isn’t something you can acquire. Either you are or you are not.
Nate’s work shows a depth of heart and a pure channeling that you wont come across 10 times in your life.
This is the work of the soul that we all know.
And the soul that knew us first.
You aren’t born into this and you don’t die out of it. This is eternity, and it brings us all to the center of the river that wants us to be here at this moment.

Nate Hall traça as suas despojadas canções a partir das raízes da música americana e das ancestrais tradições Apache. Também reconhecido como líder da banda psicadélica de culto U.S. Christmas, Nate Hall visitará o Amplifest, na sua primeira vez em Portugal, para uma performance a solo. Tendo Nate Hall trabalhos editados pela Neurot Recordings, não encontraremos ninguém melhor do que o próprio Scott Kelly (Neurosis) para descrever a sua música:

The river doesn’t ever stop. It is a continuous bringer of whatever it touches, and whomever is chosen to step within its waters.
The first time I heard Nate Hall’s voice I knew that I was hearing something that would haunt me forever. The unmistakable sound of mountains’ wind and the desperation and anguish of truth and experience.
