About Me

New:
In recent months, the psyche of Nathan Leopold has undergone a series of irreversible transformations, brought on by a variety of factors, including (but not limited to) extreme isolation, extreme sociability, urinal overflows, a constant barrage of train sounds, overexposure to jazz saxophone, and a number of imbibable mind-altering substances (boiled squid, Bacci's pizza, Lake Michigan water, etc.). Needless to say, a number of coccoons have been shed. In light of this, I have elected to update the Leopold page. In the coming days, expect a new layout and a link to the new Nathan Leopold MediaFire page, where you may keep up with all the latest projects and recordings, as well as listen to the newly-completed Live from the Black Hole., available for FREE to EVERYONE. It's like electronic communism.
Also, I will be looking for two new bandmates, a bassist and a drummer, to start a new group this summer. If you are interested, send me a message.
LEOPOLD LIVES.
Links to free songs! Yippee!!

My Blog

June 13th

That's the day I plan on moving back home for the summer, and it could not come a moment too soon. As amazingly, fantastically, butt-fuckingly cool as Chicago is, I need a long break from it, especial...

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Life right now consists of massive amounts of peppermint tea, throat lozenges, and procrastination. I had a class today at 9:40, which I actually attended by some miracle, and directly afterward I too...

Banjo King

So lately I've been writing songs on the banjo, because the banjo is pretty much the shit. If you need any convincing that the banjo is totally the shit, listen to the album Seven Swans by Sufjan Stev...

The Whiteness of the Whale

So I kind of abandoned the whole "MySpace" thang for a few months. I've been spending a lot of time finalizing plans for college - going to orientations, looking for places to live, sending in transcr...
