SUMMARY:Daniel Rodriguez w/ Nathaniel Riley
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Rodriguez\nw/ Nathaniel Riley\n\nDate: Thursday\, September 11\nDoors: 5:30pm\nShow: 6:30pm\nTickets: $25 ADV/ $30 Door/ Kids 12 & Under Free\nAudience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs for additional seating\nWell-behaved pets on leashes are welcome!\n\n  \nPurchase Tickets Here\n  \nConcert Description:\nDaniel Rodriguez\n\n\n\nWhether it was personal heartbreak or the seismic shift in his daily life when exiting his longtime band\, Elephant Revival\, Daniel Rodriguez’s latest album\, Harboring Pearls\, is a snapshot of a singer-songwriter simply trying to navigate the choppy waters of existence to the best of his ability. “I preserved my own sanity. I preserved my own integrity\,” Rodriguez says. “There’s something about not being comfortable\, knowing my integrity and ethics\, knowing my path and where I’m headed —I’m fueled by not choosing to be comfortable.” Captured by producer David Baron at his Sun Mountain\, situated atop a ridge amid the ancient Catskill Mountains of Woodstock\, New York\, Harboring Pearls was co-produced by Wesley Schultz\, lead singer for indie-folk juggernaut The Lumineers. “Now? It’s just me and the storm\,” Rodriguez says. “All the chips are in on this one piece of art. Am I crazy? Do I trust myself? What I am doing? It’s this lingering feeling that I have no idea where it’s headed\, but I need to go wherever it’s headed.” That internal\, more so existential quest of self\, of purpose and pursuit\, lies at the core of Harboring Pearls. Numbers like of “El Dorado\,” “Anything and Everything” and “Graduation” paint vivid indie-folk pictures of Rodriguez’s journey unfolding in real time. “It’s about transcendence\, and that’s been such a wild process\,” Rodriguez says. “There’s been this pressure cooking with the songs. A lot of coal being compressing into diamonds.” And what resulted was this steadfast platform of trust and radiance offered by Schultz\, one where Rodriguez felt comfortable standing on\, the culmination of those sessions being this cultivation of truth and sacrifice the lies within each selection of Harboring Pearls. “You’re on your own and these are your pearls\,” Rodriguez says of this latest batch of tunes. “And you’ve been harboring them for so long. It’s time to pass them out.”  Learn More \n\n\n \n \n \nw/ Nathaniel Riley\n\nNathaniel Riley\, a folk singer/songwriter from South Dakota\, put in his time working the small family farm and recording melancholic melodies in his basement. Treading with years of grief that constructed a cloud full of songs that Nathaniel lugged to Colorado began the process of his debut full length album\, “Bird Songs” \n\n\nNathaniel’s songscapes lean on your heartstrings\, unpacking melodies like a nostalgic lucid dream. Acoustically driven\, wistful lyricism and ambient instrumentation provide the bedrock for his contemporary folktales. Compiling miles of desolation\, heartache\, introspection and memories of the forest and the prairie’s whistle that convey him to persist. Empowering his songs their role\, to be a beacon on the hill.  \n\n\nThe sound and songs arrived abundantly\, easily and honestly. Nathaniel began recording his album “Bird Songs”\, with Aaron Youngberg at Swingfingers Recording Studios in Fort Collins\, Colorado in September of 2020. \n\n\nDarren Garvey came on as a producer for the record\, bringing a grass-roots perspective and an experimental\, contemporary ear.  \n\n\n“I always loved pushing the boundaries of genres and wanted to create something familiar to myself in a couple different ways. One of which was to bring ambient ethereal sounds to the record that may not be commonly found on records claiming to be primarily folk\,” says Riley.  \n\n\n“I love the process of recording and the almost immortal aspect it provides\,” Riley says. “You will forever hear the person’s skin on the strings\, the breath before they sing. Living proof of somebody being alive\, and it remains there\, like a little memory box of sound forever. Itself\, never changing.” Learn More \n  \n\n\n \n\n \nBenefit Details:\n\nThe concert is a fundraising event benefiting The Matthews House and funds raised will support their mission to empower youth and families by building trusting relationships and providing resources to disrupt the cycles of poverty and abuse. 100% of the event profit from ticket sales and all donations from wine and beer sales go directly to The Matthews House. \n \nVenue Details:\nThis summer marks the 10th season of Fort Collins Nursery’s Rock Garden Concert Series.
