Way back in November, I did a post on one of my favorite new artists, Nate Allen, who goes by the ominous sounding moniker Destroy Nate Allen. His music is a simple sort of folk-punk with honest, singable lyrics. It’s stripped down and raw feeling. Just one guy, his voice, and a guitar. It’s not too “pretty” or “refined,” but it’s real and it’s catchy, and I like it.
Anyway, a few weeks ago, I sent Nate way too many questions over e-mail in order to do an interview, and he was nice enough to answer every one of them so that today you can all read the results, on this beautiful first day of 2008.
But before I go on to the interview, be sure you check out his website to download all the songs he’s ever recorded and his MySpace to get up to date on all things Nate Allen. If you like his music, be sure to give him a donation, to make his life easier.
I found Destroy Nate Allen one day a while back while looking for new bands at the website for Tomfest, that Christian indie festival out in Washington. If you’re in the area of Camas, check out their 2008 festival next August. It’s sure to be awesome.
Anyway, so I found Destroy Nate Allen and when I went to his website I saw this notice: “Welcome to my new and improved website. I spent the last 6 months on the road. I am finally home and ready to relax. To celebrate the return to a day job for the winter, and the three year anniversary of playing solo, I have decided to put up most of my recorded history for your downloading pleasure.”
You heard that right. All of his 10 solo albums and 2 punk band albums are there for your downloading pleasure. Nobody does that.
