NAT MYERS: BLUES POET DEBUTS ON MAJESTIC STAGE FEBRUARY 6 2025

Gettysburg, PA – A poet and guitar picker with a staggering and true voice, Korean American blues troubadour, Nat Myers will make his Gettysburg debut live on stage Thursday, February 6 at Gettysburg College’s Majestic Theater. Myers comes to Gettysburg after a string of successful concerts in Europe. Tickets are on sale now at the Majestic Theater Box Office.

                Majestic Theater Executive Director Brett Messenger first heard Nat Myers at New Jersey’s storied Stone Pony and has been a fan ever since.

“Myers is a truly uncommon artist. He has a sound all his own and lends his incredible, and very human voice, to songs that speak to issues of today,” said Messenger. “His music is soulful, it is relatable, it is important. I am thrilled to present this artist in Gettysburg at this exciting moment in his skyrocketing career.”

Nat Myers’ folksy blues and remarkable pickin’ are authentic, timeless and enduring. The Kenton County, Kentucky native’s delivery harkens to traditional blues giants, but his unique blend of modern roots and Americana continues to make crowds drop their jaws. A poet for the modern era, Myers’ debut album Yellow Peril is filled with blues about traveling the rails, running from danger, and running toward something harder to define. It reflects Myers’ experience as a Korean American and reflects him coming into harmony with his roots. Described by NPR as “a swagger that leaps out of the speakers,” the songs depict his restlessness and wanderlust in fleet riffs, intricate rhythms, and quick tempos to weave a complex tale about life in post-pandemic America.

South Central Pennsylvania native, Virginia Masland will perform an opening set for Myers of her original music as well as some selectively reworked covers ranging from traditional folk to classic country.

The show is made possible by the Majestic Theater Centennial Endowment.
