Nestler and Hawtin

Nestler & Hawtin is now performing songs from their latest album, "Duality", in settings around the Pacific NW. "Duality" was produced by Bryan Bell, engineer/producer/technologist, best known for his work with Herbie Hancock, Carlos Santana, Neil Young and Branford Marsalis. Duality brings together the singer/songwriters Greg Nestler on vocal/guitar and Nate Hawtin on vocal/cello/guitar/keyboard with some of the leading studio musicians of our time. Nestler & Hawtin’s unique vocal blend has been heralded as reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel and Hall and Oates. Special guest performances on the album by Freddie Washington, Ray Parker Jr., David K Matthews, Karl Peraza and others provide the perfect soundscape for Nestler & Hawtin’s original songs. Duality was mixed by Niko Bolas, award winning producer and engineer, at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles. Duality is available online at iTunes, Google Play and Amazon MP3 and in CD at live events.
