Why You Should Go: On Friday night at The Ogden, Nathaniel Rateliff will be serving up the same two-set format that thrilled a packed house last Thanksgiving at The Gothic [Editor’s Note: See our review here]. After opening sets from local folk rockers Ark Life and Ben Kronberg, Rateliff’s first set will feature his folk persona while his second will feature an all-out Night Sweats assault.  While Rateliff is best known for his folksy, sensitive side, he and his band can also get the house jumping and sweating with killer Soul and R&B when they take the stage as The Night Sweats.  In this project Rateliff embodies a true soul-man. Fans of his folk persona might be shocked by a sloshing glass of whiskey, a heel spin, or a from-the-depths-of-his soul howl, but it’s this kind of raw emotion and showmanship that makes The Night Sweats so entertaining.  Don’t miss this outstanding line-up!

Venue:  The Ogden Theatre, 935 E. Colfax Ave Denver, CO 80218 – 303-832-1874

Doors: 8:00 pm. Showtime: 9:00 pm.

Nate Todd was born on the central plains of Nebraska, but grew up on the high plains of the Texas panhandle. With not much to do in either place, music was his constant companion. His parents dubbed the first two albums he ever owned onto a tape for him. Side A was Bert and Ernie’s Sing Along. Side B was Sgt. Peppers. His lifelong love affair with music started early as he practically grew up in a Rock & Roll band, with his father and uncle often taking him out on the road or into the studio with them. Nate began performing live at sixteen and hasn’t looked back, having played in numerous bands from L.A. to Austin. At the age of twenty he was bitten by the writing bug, and upon moving to Denver decided to pursue a degree from Metropolitan State University where he recently graduated with a B.A. in English and a minor in Cinema Studies.
