In a quiet seaside town in the East of Scotland, NATI. has been steadily crafting a follow up to 2023’s debut EP Older, and is set to reward her dedicated global fanbase with new material, kicking things off on the 12th July with ‘Heard It All Before’.
Fans have been dying to have this song on record, as it has been kicking off the live show over the last few months. The new single is an empowering, fiery anthem, inspired by the act of saying “no” and “I disagree”, NATI. asked fans “Do you ever sit in a stew of your own rage and disappointment”.. ‘Heard It All Before’ was the third track written with Prentice Robertson and evolved around the line “I’ve bit my tongue too many times / I’ve hurt myself and lived and lie / but that’s not working any more”. Soon the heavy electric guitars, stinky riffs, and bright little licks fell into place to create a colourful, energetic track from the so often melodic and acoustic star. “Us overthinking, anxious types may be gentle folk but categorically do not fuck with us once we get our marbles back. They might just end up stuffed in your mouth,” NATI. added.
Born and raised in Fife, NATI. exploded onto the music scene, having amassed over 2 million followers across social media platforms. NATI.’s path took a transformative turn in 2022, when dreams became a reality, as she hit the road to support some of her favourite musicians, namely Tidelines, Newton Faulkner, and Simply Red. In 2023, NATI. released her debut EP,Older, and embarked on a UK tour, adding two successful tours and numerous support slots to her repertoire. Her festival appearances have packed-out tents at TRNSMT, Belladrum, Kendal Calling, Skye Live, Tiree Music Festival, Beardy Folk, Cambridge Folk Festival, and Secret Garden Party . In support of Older, NATI. was invited to play BBC Quay sessions alongside Texas and sold out a show at Celtic Connections. Looking ahead, 2024 promises to be an exciting year for NATI. with a summer packed with festival appearances and exciting new shows, showcasing her infectious personality and memorable live shows.
NATI.’s new single ‘Heard It All Before’ is set for release on the 12th July, with more exciting news to come; stay tuned!
