Nathan Samuelson’s love of music and entertaining is palpable. His music blends the smooth melodies of the past with the hipness of the present; Nathan’s sound is jazz, but with a pop sensibility. On his musical pilgrimage, he studied under master teacher Dominic Spera [lead trumpet player for Henry Mancini and Burt Bacharach]. With a singing voice reminiscent of the crooners of yonder days, and technical yet emotive prowess on trumpet, Nathan brings a captivating sound to the stage. To add, Nathan has shared the stage with world class artists such as late soul icon Clem Curtis of “Build Me Up Buttercup” fame, and New Zealand’s esteemed lyric tenor, Ben Makisi. He also performed with Leanne Mitchell, winner of the first series of The Voice UK. After decades of passionately honing his craft, Nathan Samuelson launched his debut album City Lights Ahead, which is inspired by his journey as a young man searching for love, for meaning, and for himself across the globe. City Lights Ahead is a brilliantly composed love letter to the open sea, the close-knit family that uplifts him, and the starry embrace of the shore after a dark, stormy night.
