Nate Maingard is a modern troubadour who celebrates and inspires living a more purposeful life through the art of storytelling.
“Maingard writes protest songs for lovers and love songs for rebels.” -LMG Magazine.
Nate was born in a coastal village in South Africa, surrounded by wild ocean and mountains. He grew up his father’s guitar-making workshop and, since those early days of sawdust and wood-smells, Nate has made his own instrument and sound to go with it. His acoustic guitar Melody accompanies him in songs of love, life and lessons learned, gently dissecting and fiercely celebrating the mysterious journeys we all share as humans.
“(Nate) creates an intrinsic beauty in every vocal tip and pitch…” -Rolling Stone Magazine
Nate draws his inspiration from the indie-folk movement currently finding voice in the likes of Bon Iver, Death Cab For Cutie and Tallest Man On Earth, while remaining true to his first loves of the lyrical singer-songwriters of the 60’s, such as John Lennon, Nick Drake and Leonard Cohen.

LYRICS:
I know this to be true
That the world
Spins too fast
Leaves some folk behind
On this ship
Without a mast
Oh no no no
Somebody please
Slow it down
Slow it down
Slow it down
I see you beside the road
With your life
Packed in a case
I try to understand
But then you're gone
Without a trace
Oh no no no
Somebody please
Slow it down
Slow it down
Slow it down
Somebody please
Slow it down
For a while
Slow it down
Words become a blur
And are lost
Misunderstood
But I'll stand here on the edge
Try to catch
All I should
Oh no no no
Somebody please
Slow it down
Slow it down
Slow it down
Somebody please
Slow it down
For a while
Slow it down
Slow it down
