I am a singer/songwriter from Flagstaff, AZ that has been making music for ten years. In 2006 my band Mercy Fall released an album on Atlantic records and spent a majority of the year touring the country. I must admit, it was pretty amazing. A dream come true.
2008 was a year of tremendous significance for me. My perspective on life, music, and success changed drastically. When we returned from the road we found ourselves back where we started; unsuccessful, broke, and without a record deal. I became extremely depressed and confused. With all the work that we put into this, how could this happen? What did we do wrong? I realized that my contentment in life was completely hinged on the success of the band and that even if we became wildly successful I would still never be happy.
I have lost the desire to become famous and revered. I feel that my desires in the past have been selfish and unimportant and I've learned that I am unwilling to let success or failure define me as a person and as an artist. I feel that the only way to become successful in life and in music is to become truly happy with myself.
With that said, I am embarking on a new journey, in life and in music. I hope you enjoy my softer side.

So I have a 'Nate Stone' Pandora station and it kicks ass!... heard "let her go" last night.. always been a fav of mine. Also hearing some of your song's I haven't before and to say I'm impressed would be an understatement - keep up the amazing work man. Hope all is well with the new baby!
That song faithful is really good and really reached out to me about issues I'm going through right now. Really pulled some heartchords. Sorry I missed you at Rendavouz hopefully catch ya around soon!
Hey, I wanted to let you know that me and Monte went to Altitutdes a lil' while back just to see you perfrom. We had a wonderful time and I'm sorry we did not say hello before we left to catch a movie. We always look forward to hearing you play so drop me comment or email and I will be sure to come to your next one in town! Hugs to you! ~Razorblade
Caught you at the tail end of your set at Altitudes last weekend. It was awesome. Just wish everyone would have shut up so we could hear you better. But it was awesome to catch you again! See you 'round.
I love your song "With You," it's very personal and you did a great job allowing people to connect with it.
I have a simple question: I see that you're from Flag and I was wondering if you're planning on coming here anytime soon? I know we'd love to have you. :)
