Nathanial Young is a multi-instrumentalist and producer who has mastered the flute, guitar, and saxophone. After studying in Los Angeles, California since childhood and graduating from the Colburn Jazz Conservatory, Young went on to study at The New School for Jazz in Manhattan, New York.
In recent years, he began creating unique content that showcased his signature saxophone sound paired with his POV style content - which caught the internet by storm and has built a cult following across social platforms like TikTok and Instagram (I Million+ Followers Across Platforms) and prestigious press outlets like GQ. He has most recently been recognized/reposted by SZA and gained attention from the likes of Joe Jonas, Ed Sheeran, Benny Blanco, Diplo, James Blake, and more.
As a solo saxophonist, Young has been able to bring out hundreds of attendees to each of his free, pop-up shows in cities across the world and amass millions of streams. Now, with his upcoming album, Powder, Young's signature style will be heard through a baritone saxophone, and it will also be his debut release with a full jazz quartet.
