Nat Myers
Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Sell out warning! Hella authentic folk blues simmering with the finger-picking rawness of the Delta greats and Nat’s revisionist lyrics countering anti-Asian prejudice in his Kentucky heartland. Unmissable contemporary Americana FFO: Son House, Skip James, Otis Taylor, Charlie Parr, Alvin Youngblood Hart."

Nat Myers
Korean-American roots and blues musician
With Jack Browning
£15 Adv
7:30pm doors
“I’m always searching,” says the Korean-American blues poet Nat Myers. “Itinerancy is something that I’ve owned. I’ve done a lot of traveling, but lately it’s started to seep into my songwriting and my music. Life just feels simpler on the road. You’re just trying to get to the next place in one piece.” His debut album, Yellow Peril, is full of jumpy blues songs about hopping trains, burning up highways, running from some danger but also running toward something harder to define and even harder to catch. Full of intelligence and soul, contradiction and nuance, these songs reflect his restlessness and wanderlust in their fleet riffs, complex rhythms, and quick tempos, as he draws from a variety of stylistic strains and historical threads to weave a complex epic about life in post-pandemic America.
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
