The newest member of the One Under, Nat comes from a very musical family, with his mother teaching piano lessons in Granville, Ohio to help pay the bills. The Reeb family was also extremely involved in the church choir as well as other community gospel projects. This constant exposure to music led Nat to his first instrument, the violin, which he played until about 17. Seeing that he was an entertainer by nature, his parents and teachers encouraged him to join the school choir, where Nat seemed to feel most at home.
After studying music theory at Ohio State University, He took up an internship at a recording studio in Chicago, and put the notion of a career as a performer on hiatus, while bartending on the south side to pay the bills. Every Tuesday night for 2 years, Nat was the bartender for an open mic poetry slam at the Woodlawn Tap in Hyde Park, and was inspired by these amazing poets, along with the open mic concept.
In 2003, Nat returned to Granville, where, with the help of Brew’s Café, started his own open mic catering to musicians. He put together an acoustic guitar set to fill in any potential empty time slots and subsequently rekindling his love for performing. The open mic attracted many musicians and bands from all over Ohio including a reggae/R&B band called the Decals………who were trolling for a bass player. Nat had never played a note, but when offered the gig, he immersed himself in the challenge and embraced the low end warmth and thump that the bass had to offer. Since then, he has had the honor and privilege of playing mandolin, didgeridoo, guitar and bass with the Bell brothers (Faultline), The John Mullins Band, Stone Groove, The East Bonghi All Stars, Tom Carroll and Andy Carlson, Dave Katz and Screamin’ Peach.
