- Nathan -
Ukulelist
Nathan is a remarkable young man from Summerville, SC. He is an Eagle Scout, and he works in the family business since graduating high school in June of 2016. Nathan is an accomplished recording artist and performer, and he is an effective advocate for autism awareness. Nathan has plenty of heart, and is always looking for ways to serve his family and others. He plays ukulele and guitar, and is a regular performer in downtown Summerville and throughout the lowcountry of South Carolina. He loves Jesus, pick up trucks, aviation, music, world travel, Scouting, and people. Nathan was born in San Angelo, TX in 1997. He was diagnosed with autism in 2001, but is, in his own words, "blessed with the ability to play music, and to communicate." These are both things his older brother Marcus, who also has autism, cannot do. Marcus has never been able to speak, and is on the profoundly challenged end of the autism spectrum. Despite Marcus's inability to speak, his favorite activity, second only to eating, is listening to music. Where words fail, Music Speaks to Marcus. Nathan loves to express himself through the guitar and ukelele, and is driven to use his gift to speak for, and to, those who cannot, and to inspire to action those who can. |
Nathan was featured on the 2014 compilation album, Where Words Fail, Music Speaks. He recorded a duet with John Knowles cgp, friend and arranger for Chet Atkins. John’s arrangement of Joplin’s Entertainer for guitar won the 1976 Instrumental of the Year Grammy for Chet Atkins. Nathan has also performed on stage in Nashville with 2024 Grammy winning artist, Tommy Emmanuel, and was a featured artist on the nationally broadcasted Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour. Nathan is also a regular attendee and featured artist at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society Convention held each year in Nashville. He was recently selected to perform as opening act for Grand Ole Opry favorite, Doyle Dykes, at the WoodMill Music Works in Vale, NC, in April of 2024.
