On The Table Read Magazine, “the best entertainment eBook magazine UK“, Stateline by Nathan Ball glows with warmth, as jangly guitars and driving percussion create an all-encompassing atmosphere, layered with emotion-fuelled lyrics that tug at your heartstrings.
Stateline
Nathan Ball’s latest single, “Stateline,” is a captivating musical journey that captures the essence of life on the road. Written while touring Australia, Ball found inspiration in the endless highways, the transient nature of life, and the constant stream of new faces and places.
With its infectious blend of jangly guitars and driving percussion, “Stateline” creates an immersive atmosphere that draws you in from the first note. The heartfelt lyrics, infused with emotion and authenticity, tug at your heartstrings and leave a lasting impression.
It’s an adaptation of the story of Icarus ignoring advice and flying too close to the sun and meeting his demise. It’s a coming of age love song about dreaming your life away and the innocent beauty of young love, only to be brought back down to earth and all its reality.
It’s where I write best; by the sea, in the mountains, in the woods. I love being totally immersed in nature so naturally those themes find their way into the music. I love being in the ocean – just being in it and feeling totally insignificant. It’s a reminder of the order of things.
I love the way it makes you feel – it’s euphoric, but sad, introverted but expressive. I love that darker side of the genre.
-Nathan Ball
