NAT ALLISON.
From the Studio to the stage, Nat Allison delivers a pitch-perfect scream, strut antics and evil guitar showboat. 2010 kicked off to an exciting start with channel seven using Nat Allison and Mike Chapman’s song called ‘Anyone For Tennis’ as their theme song for the 2010 Australian Open ad campaign. At the same time ‘Anyone For Tennis’ was also released on iTunes (Australia) through Standard/Universal records. Shortly after Nat was invited to London to play guitar on legendary ‘Suzi Quatro’s’ new album, which was such an honour for Nat.
More recently Nat can be seen gracing our TV screens and singing on the radio for the Victorian Country Racing TV ad.
To date Nat has played some 5000 gigs, including festivals and opening for big names such as Martha Davis and The Motels, The Screaming Jets, Jimmy Barnes, Invertigo and numerous others.
