Dec. 30: Nathan Lindsay in Concert at The MAIN
Dec. 30, 2017 07:00 p.m.

Join Nathan and friends as they celebrate the release of Nathan’s new album entitled, “HERE’S THE THING”. This album explores the depth of long distance relationships with all of its trials and tribulations.

The catchiness of his songs is undeniable and easily memorable with deep and metaphoric lyrics accompanied by rock pop instrumentation. Nathan’s vocal styling also has qualities to it that none of his peers possess. It would be easy to pick out his strong but sensitive baritone voice from the rest.

Nathan’s new music walks that fine line between Rock and Pop but if asked, is heavier, edgier, and possess more of a hook than his previous album.
