Natalia Harmon is a young indie-folk artist that I discovered recently. Her sound is similar to Regina Spektor and Florence & The Machine but with her own special twist. Her lyrics are deep and full of raw emotion. She is timid and has captivating but innocent eyes. She also draws and paints when not writing music. Keep and eye out for this new artist!
- How did you lean how to play guitar and write songs?
I am a self taught musician and started playing several common chords as a base for getting familiar with the guitar. I was always horrible at doing covers, so I just started placing my fingers on any guitar strings that would droll out a nice sound, in this way I truly found a way to deliver a successful echo of my emotions.
Who is your favorite musician? My favorite musician is the Tallest Man on Earth; he has a deep and rich voice, and is completely unafraid of wailing away with his raspy, rigidity voice. He plays the blues but his music will transport you to peaceful soft meadows and streams of the countryside, putting you at ease. Another favorite artist of mine is Jana Hunter and she too has a deep folk sound accompanied with mellow lyrics and soul. Favorite local musician? There is a group called Not Them, who are dear friends of mine that live in Orlando, they completely inspire me. They have a hip-hop sound to them and take the written word to a whole different level, they are an inspiration and will make you want to stand up and spit words at a Slam. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? The only thing that I truly want for my future is to share my creativity to friends and strangers, giving them something to relate to and hopefully a positive outlook on the lives that they lead. I sing the blues, but I would like to share the beauty of the things I see and learn from. It would be awesome to dream that I get big and reach people outside of Brevard County and maybe that can be attainable through more exposure. What are 3 things that you cannot live without? Running shoes, coffee, and peanut butter.
