Her candid point of view combined with her female perspective makes for straight forward lyrics. I have always preferred a direct approach over a vague message when it comes to my own music that's why I gravitate towards country music as my main foundation even though my musical background is swamped with a mixture of pop styles as well as more traditional country classics. If it [the song] grabs my attention on more than one level then I love it, no matter what the musical style of the song or artist! It's the common experience deriving from the heart of the artist that attracts me. I'm a huge fan of singer songwriters. Co-writing has been such a great gift. I have learned so much and I have been blessed, inspired and encouraged. In 2009 Natalie became the US correspondent based in Nashville for the new Heatwave Country Radio Show, which was an all-new hour of fun and entertainment combined with the hottest country music on the planet. Heard on the KIX Country Network as well as numerous other stations, Heatwave Country was a syndicated program that was also available to every country radio station across Australia. Natalie brought you the latest US news, showcases the latest releases, catching up with stars of US country music while she brought you the most up to date reports each week live from Nashville. Natalie is currently collaborating with other artists as well as working on her new CD. For more on Natalie Howard please go to her website: www.nataliehoward.net
