The Skunk-Boy Project

With his distinctive, original sound Nate Swettenham, is an exciting addition to the acoustic scene. Since rescuing his brother's ukele from a dusty heap a few years ago and falling in love with it, he attracts an ever growing audience. His songs are about love and life and yet he is something out of the ordinary. He holds his audience with gentle, confident ease, singing lyrical songs that are rich in melodic atmosphere and linger in your head long after the event. A master of 'the different'. His music is magical and he wants to share it.
