Raised in the peaceful village of Manchester, Michigan, Natalie Mae has honed her talents into a new and unique blend of folk/roots music. Her parents, music teachers and folk musicians themselves, instilled in her the passion and love for music at a young age, encouraging her to learn multiple instruments and to take the songwriting craft seriously. She started playing piano at the age of five and by high school was playing the guitar, banjo and bass. Since moving to Louisiana, where she recently received a BM in Music Industry Studies from Loyola University New Orleans, Natalie has taken her songwriting to another level, using her talents with all her instruments, including the ukulele to mix, to express her stories of desired love, dying love, and forgotten love. Her experience from listening to and observing her parents' traditional folk music (The Raisin Pickers) can be heard in her use of traditional story lines and simple melodies. Her voice carries each melody with power and ease, while her lyrics prove to be crafted with great care. With the release of her debut album, "Waiting on You," Natalie Mae proves to be a rising songwriter and musician who has much more to be heard and enjoyed.
