   About Nathan Holscher
"Working in the medium of acoustic Folk, yet transcending it within his smoky songwriting, Holscher paints vivid pictures within his songs, which are emotionally direct in their storytelling but spectral and airy in their sonic construction. Working with local Grammy-nominated producer Ric Hordinski, Holscher has created an album of dark Americana, falling somewhere between the spaciousness of Joe Henry and the lithe Pop of Damien Rice.

Holscher's voice is the definition of subtle . . . perfect for his songs, conveying fragility, melancholy and sighing resignation . . .with Holscher giving voice to those deepest, saddest emotions all of us have. Only he has the talent to turn them into pure poetry." -City Beat, September, 2007

Buy the CD

"Holscher fixes his thousand yard stare on the landscape whilst looking inwards, taking acoustic country-steeped folk on a painful emotional journey. His is the voice of the last man left in town. Scarred, torn and twisted lives scream an emotional fragility that's superbly at odds with the strength of the songwriting. The world-weary sense of despair is evidence of an astonishing maturity, as Holscher fashions scenes from far beyond his mere 25 years. 9 OUT OF 10 STARS"- Whisperin and Hollerin (Ireland), March, 2008

"Holscher is going to appeal to a lot of people: he can sing, writes in a classical way without resorting to retro stylings; he'll be on my menu for sometime to come."- Americana UK

"4.5 Out of 5 Stars"- Rootstime

"4 Out of 5 Stars"- Alt. Country NL

WOW - love your sound, especially the song "Pretty Words" - great tune. Really love your production and tonal choices too!!!

Hope you dig our sound - this week we've uploaded the acoustic-based songs from our catalog. Check out "It Was You" or "Come With Me" - I think you'd enjoy them even if they are pure pop!

Feel free to download and share our music with your friends. If you want to hear more you can listen and download more than 24 songs from our catalog at our sister site at:

Hi Nathan,
you can give a listen to my radio show connecting to this:
http://www.highway61.it/Highway61/Playlists/index.htm.
I speak in Italian of course so that you have to say that I started my yesterday's programme saying that the first two CD's to play are also my two favourite ones on this time!
Hope you enjoy the show, if you give a listen, and wish you again all the best for the Holidays!
Yours,
Massimo
