11pm- Nathan Leigh and the Travelling Salesmen
Genre: Indie folk
For fans of: The Mountain Goats, Andrew Bird, Tim Kasher, David Bazan

Somewhere between loud raucous folk music and delicately hushed punk rock, Nathan Leigh and the Travelling Salesmen merge a uniquely eclectic sound with captivating storytelling. Songs vary from sing-along political anthems to deeply personal stories of loss and hardship set to guitars, saxophones, and found percussion. After a 5 month US tour, the band has been holed up in Brooklyn working on their next album Ordinary Eternal Machinery, set to be released this summer.

“’Icarus’ benefits from Nathan Leigh’s generally clever lyrics and tangy score — a little Weill, a little Mumford.” - Scott Heller, The New York Times

“’A Life in Transit’ is a songbook for our time. Beneath the highs and lows is an undercurrent of resilience and optimism for the future and all the opportunities that the open road has to offer.” - Patrick Widdess, Delusions of Adequacy
