About Me

Producer, workaholic and emcee, Nat Kendall, has been running with bands from the east to the west coast and from reggae bands to punk bands for the last ten years. Nat currently performs and records as one of the two lyrical strongholds in Eightrack Mind , a live hip-hop band. When not touring, he fulfills his need for more intimate songwriting with Nat Kendall Presents , a series of collaborations with diverse artists that smash up all your preconceptions of hip-hop, indie rock, soul, electronica and more.
It's finally flown the nest!! Songbird Sing, the newest collab, features the luscious vocals of Paige Rasmussen. It’s a love album of sorts and a pain album of sorts… truest stories of the broken hearted. Part neo-soul and part hip-hop, all songs were written and recorded on Nat’s acoustic guitar and then carefully electrified on the SX1 to produce the ear-watering electronica sound on songs like “Hello” and “The Wiring.” This is an eclectic electro-pop release from rock shock it! records. The new CD is finally out and available!!! You can purchase the album or download it by clicking below...
For more info visit Songbird Sing or rock shock it! records .
The first collab, entitled Lovers and Ghosts, features Minneapolis songwriter, Cy Ducharme. “Diamonds” and “Still Here” are two tracks off the melting pot of hip-hop, indie rock, down tempo and more. Aaron Hernandez of Cactus Records called it “an experiment in musical fusion that craftily combines several cases of love, frustration, fragility and loss into one of the most unique albums of the year.” To find out more about the album and hear more tracks visit Lovers and Ghosts or buy the album below...
