nate thank you for your words of light, miracles, love, hope, trying, giving, growing,
thank you for sharing your gifts that you've been given.
you have a beautiful voice...a powerful message, and a "good heart" look at this kid's heart... - The Feelin
I think your energy is really wonderful, and your message of love is so true...something that really resonates with me right now, a lot, as I'm in a phase of trying to move out of a lot of horrible hurt and grief, and just keep loving and keep being as authentic and honest and true to myself as I can no matter what...whether or not I get messages back that I'm okay/not okay/desirable/not desirable... It's always good to get a reminder of how important that is. :-)
Peace out!

"hi, I've tried to comment under the "seeds" song, but either my comp.skills or something in the set-up is wrong, so I'll tell it here. That song is as you had a real channeling of Bob Marley's spirit. Maybe you can turn it on the first place, so more people would hear it (usualy you first pick the first, right?)- it could be a huge hit. I'll try to add it to my profile now (that will be my first try at putting music there, ha!)Also, since I'm on Zaadz.com, too, I was thinking that would be like an anthem to them (the words just match that community). So, basically, you've got my blessings to keep with the good work, Namaste! Daniela"
nate stevens music has something that a lot of artists generally lack today and that is genuine sincerity. so sit back, relax, and witness the evolution of the hippies.

"I went to Mad Love's performance at The Cabooze last night. See the attached photo captured on my cell phone camera. They didn't go on until after midnight, but it was worth the wait as usual. The crowd was in love with each other. I must have seen a hundred hugs. The Mad Love band just seems to bring that out in folks. Melissa, Nicole, and Emily were outstanding both in harmony and choreography of course, but for me, the highlight of the evening was Nate Stevens doing his now legendary "Let Your Light Shine", and at the end, a ten minute version of "I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends", with the goddesses doing backup vocals, in the most passionate solo I've ever seen him do, complete with Joe Cocker spasms, and chicks passing out on the floor, perhaps the best perfomance of his career so far. He will be traveling to places unknown in the next few months, and it will be a while until Mad Love will play again. But they will, because the world is mad and all she needs is love, baby..."

BIO: ROOTS
Nate Stevens was born and raised in St. Paul, MN. Nate grew up around music, with his father Chris playing guitar and bass in several Christian groups, exposing Nate to many styles from early on, including gospel and rock. Nate picked up guitar at the age of 10, and quickly caught on to the fun of performing, having his first performance at church at age 12. In school, Nate performed with a madrigal choir, singing early church music of the 12th-15th century, sang in contemporary performance choirs, and both mixed and male choruses. Nate's choir career culminated in being selected out of thousands of applicants for 1995 All-State choir.
In 1993, Nate began playing and collaborating with other local musicians, writing and singing music and playing many of his favorite bands' material. This collaboration became The Beads, a band Nate would play almost 1,000 shows with over the next 10 years.

Hey Nate Stevens Music, Thanks for accepting my request! How are things in California? The weather here in Milwaukee has been quite erratic lately, as the earth does its seasonal shift on its axis. Anyway, I saw you were a friend of Deepak Chopra's, so I thought you might be interested in a new healthy beverage and ground floor home-based business he's endorsing called Zrii, which features the healing Amalaki fruit from the Himalayas. I hope this finds you well. Wishing you peace, love, and prosperity, Paul Kuhn Cellocaster, Violin, Vocals, Zrii Milwaukee via Aspen via D.C. USA music page: www. myspace. com/treehouseonline
