Live Music @ Dancing Fish: Nathanial Talbot Trio

Dancing Fish Vineyards
Join us for excellent live music and wine in community!
We’re excited to welcome back the Nathaniel Talbot Trio to the Dancing Fish Barn stage. This is one one those, ‘if you know, you know” kind of shows. Nathaniel is a true talent and his Trio brings it to a new level. Originals you’ll feel you’ve known for years along with incredible renditions of some of your favorites. This is going to be a great show.
Nathaniel is a guitarist and singer from Washington’s Whidbey Island, writes American roots music that combines the soulful edge of tradition with the Pacific Northwest’s legacy of freedom and innovation. He began learning piano at age 7, started his first punk band at 13 and quickly thereafter began steeping himself of the guitar-driven sounds of Bill Frisell, Kelly Joe Phelps, Elliott Smith and other Northwest heroes. Over the next 15 years Talbot honed an approach to songwriting and storytelling, driven by his complex fingerstyle guitar work, that has earned him a distinct place in the folk scene.
Accompanied by Whidbey Island’s Keegan Harshman on upright bass and Aaron Chaiclin on drums, the Trio is powered by their tight acoustic arrangements, lush vocals and the ability to suddenly stretch into the unexpected.
