Begin New Album!
I have a great collection of new songs, which I am excited to record professionally. Once we reach this next milestone, I will be able to begin the process of recording the songs, aiming for at least one a month, so that I can eventually release a full album within the next year. Songs like Golden Shadows, Always Wandering, Lovers In The Morning Light, Everything Is Not What It Appears, Trying...and many more are all going to sound so epic with beautiful instrumentation and production!
Come on this journey with me, let's bring music we care about into the world, together.

WHO IS NATE MAINGARD?
I'm a modern troubadour and indie-folk singer-songwriter from South Africa, creating heartfelt songs about love, romance, nature, loss, shadow, laughter, light and community, inspired by my nomadic travels and the people I meet. If you want to know more about me, read
my full bio, or watch the video below.
HOW PATREON WORKS:
- Patreon allows you to support my art by making a monthly pledge.
- You pledge as little or as much as you like...seriously, ONE DOLLAR IS AMAZING, IT ALL ADDS UP.
- You are charged at the beginning of each month.
- You can cancel your pledge or change your pledge amount at any time.
WHY I USE PATREON:
My ancestor was a troubadour (a nomadic musician and storyteller), named Aimeric de Peguilhan. Aimeric
was funded by patrons who believed in his art and supported him so he could focus on creating more of it!
"Thanks to Patreon, the time of the troubadour has returned!"
When you pledge, you directly support my art and become one of
The Nateives, a global community linked by a mutual love of passion, truth and good music. You also receive wonderful rewards in exchange.
My favourite part is that there are no middle-men or corporate interests...just us, connecting and empowering positive change in the world! If this makes sense to you, then please
pledge now. Pledges start at $1, and, no matter the amount, I do a happy dance every time a new Nateive joins the tribe!
WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING?
You may be asking yourself, "So what does he need all this cash for?" If you are, this bit's for you:- Income from Patreon covers my living costs, so that I can keep travelling and focus on sharing my music and stories with people around the world.
- Thanks to Patreon, I recorded a new song in a studio in South Africa, and even made a music video for it. As Patreon grows I can afford to record more songs more professionally, and pay more awesome musicians to join me at shows or in studio!
- I dream of one day living in an eco-village or farm community, using that as a base and touring a few times a year...while supporting a family of my own. You who support me on Patreon allow me to fulfil these dreams of a simple and meaningful life.
Magical hugs
Your troubadour
Nate
