A B O U T
As the number of fully-independent talents taking the landscape of faith-based music by storm continues to grow, 24-year-old Pacific Northwest native Nathan Oswalt is adding his own sound - and story - to the conversation. Born with autism, the aspiring artist/songwriter/producer creates uplifting original tunes with sonically diverse musicality and deeply moving lyrical themes. Entering just his third year of "official" music-releasing experience, Oswalt has already achieved unexpected success - two of his songs ("WHO KNOWS", "OUTRUN") have been named Top Christian tracks by DREAM Label Group, and he has received positive feedback both from prominent Christian music organizations (JesusFreakHideout, Awakening Events) and fellow artists (Zane Walls, Manafest, Coby James). In addition, Oswalt's "STILL GOOD" has emerged as a fan favorite on streaming platforms, and his most recent single, the bittersweet "SHADOWLANDS (2022 Demo)", arrived in late October of 2024.
When he's not doing anything music-related (or working part-time as a public school cafeteria staff member in his hometown of Vancouver, WA), Oswalt enjoys reading the Bible, binge-watching YouTube, playing Madden, traveling, cooking, and hanging out with family and friends.
