Welcome to Podcast 100

When Nathaniel began writing for the new album And it’s still alright, the songs initially centered on the pain of his unraveling personal relationship, but the theme of the album took a different direction when Richard Swift, his longtime friend, and producer of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats’ two acclaimed albums, passed away in July 2018.

This time, there’s no Night Sweats riding to the rescue.

While the songs are quieter and more reflective,  they are no less urgent and indelible.  These are strong stories  and even stronger songs

"I've always been trying to write songs that hit you in the stomach but I like ones that make people feel like things will be just fine."

Nathaniel Rateliff
