"Drawing together
elements of Soul, Pop and R & B, Nat Brown, the singer
/ saxophone player, has become well liked for his smooth
stylings on classic songs."
ith casual ease Nat plays and sings many songs from the
50's, 60's and 70's (plus a few originals) and has been featured on radio
and television shows throughout California. Having shared the stage
with Little Richard, Etta James, The Coasters and Ike and Tina Turner in
earlier days, it's no wonder Nat is reaching for the stars.
Nat Brown credits his family for the strong
musical roots that run through his veins. But it was a pivotal event in
his early teens however, that changed his life's course. On the street
with a group of friends who were playing, Brown was shot and lost his
sight in 1952. While attending the Missouri School for the Blind he
was promised a musical instrument and he chose the saxophone. He's been
playing ever since.
Since his first successful CD release, "First Day In
Love", Nat has release five more CDs. Nat's latest musical accomplishment, "Smooth aka Nat Brown" contains his Grammy nominated single, "Blueberry Hill". Nat Brown released his first CD and gave a special
performance at the Missouri School for the Blind in St. Louis to
give tribute to those who helped him along the way. Nat has never
allowed his blindness to be a wall, just a hurdle that he has
cleared many times. With hard work and determination Brown earned a
Ph.D. in clinical psychology. "I will often say that I lost the gift
of sight, but I was given the gift of insight," Brown
says.
Nat performs his Grammy Nominated rendition of Blueberry Hill and other songs.
