Nathaniel Rateliff "Nothing To Show For" Live - Sideshow Alley

Nathaniel Rateliff performs "Nothing To Show For" live for www.sideshowall...
ABOUT THE EPISODE
With the hustle of the Bowery below, in this second part on top of a beautiful rooftop location in Manhattan, we're treated to another amazing performance from the Communion Austin to Boston tour. If you've watched our earlier episode from The Staves you will notice some familiar faces here.
Nathaniel Rateliff was the sole USA native joining the 3 other english acts on the road. A local folk hero in his hometown of Denver, Colorado, Nathaniel spent many years as a truck driver before taking to his true craft. When the tour rolled into NYC, Richie, Sammi and rest of the SSA crew were on hand to capture this performance.
On cameo slate duties, Ben Lovett (Mumford & Sons) set things into action. Playing a yet to be released track, this gentle bear who wears his heart on his sleeve, belted out a story from the soul. A quick pan around roof revealed just how easy it is to be drawn into his tender tunes.
We've been lucky enough to be immersed into this man's music. We recommend you do the same. Check out the album In Memory of Loss to hear more.

This man's music has saved my soul.... Maybe even my life. The first time I heard anything from him I was at the lowest I've ever been. I needed the words so badly...and he gave them to me. 💓

[@TommyMoore3]

I share this same story.... at the lowest part of my life I saw his first performance of early spring till at the High Dive in Denver.... I felt like he knew exactly how I felt and he was singing the words as a soundtrack to my life... i wasnt alone anymore

[@melomaniacjane2260]

@@TommyMoore3 my first song was And It's Still Alright. I cried the entire time

[@Baustakar]

Guys guys....I think this is from the music documentary Austin to Boston. Watch it. A lot of great songs from The Staves, Ben Howard, Nathaniel and so on when they were touring together :)

[@slsikes1]

I am so in love with this guy

[@marion63er]

Shannon Leigh me too 😍

[@marcoseliash]

When you're not religious and you say "God, this is something out there"... totally different from him and the night swets, which is also another non religious claim "them, God, they are genius", and he is awesome. Being following him and them for the last 5 years, although nate claims a lot not to be recognized, somehow I am thankful of that. Keep it real nate, that's what is making you all. Much love!

[@ingridagrigaliuniene3498]

When youre not religous just please read bible go tu church you need to not belevie but know that there is smt

[@Mchannnnel]

Austin to Boston film

[@tomjaquesvolkswagen]

How do they get such good sound on a windy roof top?

[@rodrigozamo]

A good boom mic with a thick wind protector and it is perfectly possible. Not sure which recorder is that but Zoom and Tascam make great portable recorders like this one to record on the go. A little wire mic into the hole of the guitar, a little compression and added reverb in post and you have a great product.

[@joycemckennon]

[@nancybushey]

One single out of ten Seen better odds in them But it's not that bad Well me I was digging with my crutch I stand in my own rut That I wrote down While you Don't listen you just stare Its not pealing it's a tear And it's distance and it's where It's gettin under my skin But a wave Could carry you away Or leave you somewhere else Or leave you in the flames So let the dirges ring I'll be there to burn with you We're all broke down We're all well hid We're all just kids Despite our age Look You see this broken hand Oh it's just another limb Well not to me And you Don't listen you just talk Well leave me in the dark I don't wanna know Now a wave Could carry you away Or leave you somewhere else Or leave you in the flames So let the dirges ring I'll be there to burn with you They don't call my name anymore They don't wrap themselves in a song in the night They don't call us all that we are After all, we got nothing to show for

[@stevejusticelives]

[@oldfartcycling]

Those are the other artists from the Communion tour in 2015. It's documented in the movie, Austin to Boston. No need for ridiculous commentary in the middle of a great song.
