NATALIE MERCHANT
From Jamestown, New York. Natalie is the former leader of 10,000 Maniacs, which she joined after being a groupie of the band! A formative period for the experimental Natalie, she also did some nude figure modeling for art classes at this time. Through her period with the Maniacs, she grew before our eyes from a whirling teen, dancing in circles on a stage to the seasoned singer she has become. Her music has lost that Maniacs sound but continues to reveal insightful vignettes of her thoughts and emotions. Recent years have seen her vocal tool lower and harshen into something resembling Phoebe Snow but it is too early to tell if it is a result of maturity or a conscious style change. Recent efforts have been album projects focusing on whole ideas, such as Appalachian folk music and children's poetry. 1995-present.
