Introducing Myself

[Nathan Wilson]

Hi, my name is Nathan Wilson, i am 23 years old(at the time of writing this) and i am an Autistic guy who aspires to become a Country music singer like my idol Lee Kernaghan, i don't know how to do a proper and formal introduction but i will say a few things about me. So i am a natural born Video Gamer(an interest that is sadly for me, slowly dying or ageing, you choose the word) and i like to entertain people through music and Video Game Commentary, i do YouTube as a hobby, that i am trying to turn into a full time job as i have learned that it takes a fair bit of time for someone who has no knowledge of how to play an instrument to get into the music industry, and seeing as my financial state is never in the state i would like it to be in i more or less find chasing my dream of becoming a Country music singer a struggle. When it comes to my YouTube Commentaries i use some profanity whenever, but i don't use extremely excessive  vulgar language, and from experience it seems me dying in my videos seems to be what i'm probably gonna be known for(been trying so hard to not let that happen). I have also recently just started to dive into the hardware side of PC, such as learning what parts do what and what features they have, etc, whether this turns into a hobby i'm honestly not sure, if it does then great, if not then "oh well". I also fancy astronomy a little bit as i find it interesting that there is so much we don't know and very little we do know.

Here is a lil bit more about me, copied from another page on this site:

N/A

4. Do you record your music?

My covers, yes

Do you use a home studio? If so what gear do you use?

I don't have a home studio, i use a comparatively primitive setup

I want to in the future, once i have established myself in the Country Music genre

Do you have music available on the web? if so where?

None atm, i am planning on releasing a song(assuming everything goes according to plan)

(if my motivation is anything to draw past experience from, nothing goes according to plan)

Yes i did

Can we hear them anywhere:

My ReverbNation Page(Warning, i am in no way great, so don't go saying i am):https://www.reverbnation.com/nathanwilson1993

Australia

8. What are your ambitions?

Ambitions

 

To become the "King of Country Music" or at bare minimum to become "The King of Australian Country Music"

(ok to be fair the only way that will happen is if ALOT of people enjoy my music and i pump out several #1 hits(look at George Straits amount of #1 hits, basically my ambitions are more than likely a dream more than anything else)

9. Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

I can't do any of those, story making, maybe

What are your pastimes?

Video Games, Stargazing, Singing to music(even music i can't sing at all(Like Heavy Metal)

10. What would you like to get out of Songstuff?

To Be Honest, I don't know, i guess i'll have to wait and see

I look back, 3 years later, and my interest in video games is close to dead, I have started learning guitar, I can play drums at a competent level, And I no longer release crappy covers on reverbNation, but I have started o experiment with making music in GarageBand.

[john]

Interesting looking back at that snapshot of who you were?

[Nathan Wilson]

Yup, and I predict 3 years from now I’ll look back in retrospect again.

[john]

Lol

 

well, hopefully you might be active in between?

[Nathan Wilson]

Can’t guarantee that one mate, but if I need some help music-related, You’ll probably know about it, along with everyone else on this site.
