Happy to announce another solo performance happening this Saturday night 6/26 at The Rosebud in Davis Sq., Somerville. In addition, I’m equally excited that the second half of the set will feature my collaboration with Glenn Dibenedetto in a project we call Parlour Bells. Glenn and I have been making music together on and off ever since we met outside a junior high dance roughly twenty years ago. So needless to say whenever we get onstage memories of youth and very long hair come rushing back! Our set starts promptly at 9pm with me doing some solo material first followed by Glenn and I. The night certainly doesn’t end there in fact it keeps rolling with sets by Old Jack and One Hand Free. Check out my live page for more info on this and other shows.
alone together
Lakers 83 Celtics 79
As most of you know I love Celtics Basketball. So much so that I went to LA to see Game 2 of the Finals. The trip turned out to be a once in a lifetime experience and the actual game was historical. Ray Allen’s performance goes into the record books with his completion of eight 3 pointers, seven of which came in the first half. Needless to say attending the game I love 3000 miles away and witnessing a win was incredible. Anyway, should be an interesting off season with Doc and Ray’s future uncertain in addition to all of the free agent movement. Alas, the season is over but I’ve got some memories to last me until Fall.
July….
I’ve added some shows to the “live” page. Turning out to be another busy month with a Solo/Parlour Bells performance and a few Blizzard shows as well as the new ep we’re working on.
life is good…but busy!
I’ve been working really hard lately on a bunch of different projects. First off the Blizzard has been cooking up some new songs and the ideas are flowing steadily. We’ve begun writing and rehearsing in Chris’s living room and I think the change of atmosphere and wide open space is inspiring.
I’ve also been doing some fill in work with some bands. Most recently I played with Old Jack at the Fleetwood Mac Cover-Up and had a great time. I really enjoyed being in my favorite Boston band for a gig and all the members are very cool to work with. In addition to all of this I’m also part of a pickup band performing an array of music set to choreographed dancers.
I can’t remember a busier time but it’s invigorating and refreshing after all these years of playing.
On Friday March 5th TBO78 are part of a great CD release show for Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents happening at T.T. the Bears in Cambridge. We’re on at 9:30!

do it solo
My friend Sooz has come up with a great idea for a solo acoustic show and it’s called Do It Solo. The idea is to take guys who normally rock with full bands and showcase their music as solo artists. I’ll be performing along with Marc Pinansky of Township and Ian Adams. It all happens on Wednesday, February 24th at the Lizard Lounge. More info at Do It Solo
This Saturday night February 13th TBO78 pays tribute to Neil Young at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge. For more info check out The Cover Up Boston
I’m really excited about my next solo gig. I’ll be performing a song in Providence’s premiere variety show The Empire Revue at AS220. Pip and I have done some TBO78 songs in the past and have always enjoyed it.

This is my very own website for all things Nate. In lieu of my first solo album, which I’m working on right now, I wanted to have a place where I can keep everyone updated. It’s a work in progress but will be updated regularly with lots of cool content, live shows, etc..
