Parker Millsap/Nat Myers
Parker Millsap quickly made a name for himself with his captivating live performances, soulful sound, and character-driven narratives. He’s had a string of successes, including an appearance on Conan, a performance with Elton John at the Apple Music Festival, an Austin City Limits taping, and an Americana Music Association nomination for Album of the Year. He's shared the stage with artists like Jason Isbell, Shovels & Rope, Patty Griffin, Houndmouth, and many others. Millsap's early releases showcased a mastery of acoustic folk rock, with a flourish for revelation and fiery dynamics. Be Here Instead, Millsap’s 2021 release produced by John Agnello, hinted at the wildness to come while exploring newer, more personal songwriting styles. Millsap's newest album, Wilderness Within You, is a natural step in his evolution, which interweaves threads of his musical past and newer influences to gorgeous effect.
A poet with a staggering and true voice, Korean-American troubadour Nat Myers delivers folksy blues and remarkable pickin' that are authentic, timeless, and enduring. The Kenton County, Kentucky, native's delivery harkens back to traditional blues giants, but it's his unique blend of modern roots and Americana that continues to make crowds drop their jaws. His new album, Yellow Peril, was recorded live at the over 100-year-old home of producer Dan Auerbach, and is haunted by the ghosts of the rich history of the blues.
