Nathan Cole Music

Nathan first picked up an instrument at 16 years of age after receiving a electric guitar as a birthday present. "It felt so comfortable to play & I have been hooked on music ever since." Nathan continued to develop his playing skills, jamming out in the bedroom many nights and picking up guitar lessons along the way from various teachers. "Being passionate about music I have was always considered ways to pursue it as a full time occupation" so when a close friend approached Nathan to join a band he was forming in 2003, he jumped on the opportunity. Developing their playing skills and writing songs along the way, Seraphs song styles ranged from heavy distorted guitars and bass driven songs to soft melodic vocally driven pieces. Although Seraph didn't work out for the long term, the three years experience playing shows, rehearsing and songwriting with three other talented musicians gave Nathan a solid musical foundation and a better understanding of what direction he wanted to head with his music. For the past few years Nathan has been concentrating on writing his own songs, developing his recording and production skill set, learning various cover tunes and playing solo, duo & trio acoustic gigs all across Sydney with other talented musicians.
Artists and bands that influence Nathans songwriting are Pearljam, INXS, Tool, Live, Jimi Hendrix, Lifehouse, Saving Abel, U2, Chris Daughtry, The Calling, John Mayer, Bon Jovi, The Killers, RHCP, Newton Faulkner, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jason Mraz and many many more.
