Nathaniel Rateliff is one of those names I recognize around the live music scene, but never investigated further. I admit this to you shamefully, as I discovered that the man has bucket loads of talent.
I caught him along with his group The Night Sweats, at Newport Folk Festival where they demonstrated tremendous amount of life and energy full of passion and soul. Fans seated in the tent rose from their seats to clap and stomp along with the soulful tunes that they hammered with ease.
I was only able to stick around for the first third of their set, but hope to catch them again someday in New York soon enough.
