Nate Bergman – announces new Irish/UK tour and EP

NATE BERGMAN, the Nashville by way of D.C. singer-songwriter, is a performer with a voice that transcends generations. First introduced to U.K. audiences as the frontman of reggae-influenced rock act LIONIZE, in recent years NATE BERGMAN has trailblazed a new path as a diverse solo artist embracing Americana, while not turning his back on his other loves of emo, punk, rock, and metal.

Anchored in Nashville’s vibrant music scene, Bergman‘s journey began with a passion for storytelling through song. His live performances are a testament to his talent, marked by a magnetic stage presence that captivates audiences wherever he sings.

Nearly a year on from 11 dates around the U.K. & Ireland as special guest to Chuck Ragan, NATE BERGMAN has now revealed his return to the U.K. this May and June, as well as plans for new music.

Nate says, “After crossing the U.K. and Ireland for the first time alongside Chuck Ragan and Amigo The Devil, I’ll be heading back out for my first run of headline shows.

These will be smaller rooms. Close quarters. The kind where the songs can breathe.

The shows lead up to the brand new State Fayre Festival in Chelmsford on June 28th. It’s set to be the UK’s biggest gathering of Americana, rock, country, and folk music and I’m honoured to be part of the line-up.

Along the way I’ll be releasing a new EP, The Death of Americana. It’s the beginning of the next chapter, and the most visceral music I’ve put out since Metaphysical Change in 2022.”
