FUTURE ROCK STAR Upon first meeting Johnathan, you would’t believe from his shy and humble demeanor, the raw, edgy, and piercing singing voice that lives inside of this kid. The 14-year-old future rock star came walking through our N4N doors this summer, and immediately I took note of how incredibly popular he was so soon amongst his peers. Johnathan came to us by way of Las Vegas while visiting his father here in the Bay Area for the summer. Immediately, he went to work writing and recording his first EP, and I couldn’t be more impressed with him and excited for what is to come .
ELLIOT VISITS THE MECCA OF GRUNGE Elliot kicked off his summer travel plans with a trip back to the Mecca of grunge, Seattle! If you know Elliot then you know he draws inspiration from the legendary band Nirvana. It’s great to see someone so young study the historic roots of where one of his favorite bands comes from. Deep dives like this are a crucial part of the evolution of a young developing musician, and the impact this trip has made on his mindset and his craft has already been felt.
