Nathan Hamilton

Anderson Fair presents Nathan Hamilton.

Nathan Hamilton is an Austin,Texas based multidisciplinary artist who has worked extensively as a musician,visual artist and woodworker. As a singer/songwriter he has been performing professionally for 20 years.

During that time he has released six albums on his own and two as a member of the Good Medicine Band (aka Sharecroppers). He was a winner of the 2000 Kerrville New Folk Award and a Top 5 Finalist in the 2008 Independent Music Awards. Nathan has toured internationally and in 2012 was selected to be an Official City of Austin Music Ambassador to Oita,Japan as part of the Sister Cities Program.

Nathan is a studied visual artist as well. He has shown work in both group and solo shows. Nathan employs a raw and loose-handed aesthetic along with a recycling sensibility.  Using old doors, boards, dirt, rope, sticks, house paint, stones and other salvaged materials, Nathan turns these crudely textural elements into assemblages and paintings that take on a contemplative and raw elegance.

When he is not touring or making art, Nathan Hamilton uses his eye for detail and craftsmanship as a fine finish carpenter and woodworker.
