Listen "Episode 74: Nate Query"
Episode Synopsis
Hi! I’m your host this week, Marie Le Claire.
I’m so excited about our guest this week, Nate Query, long time bass player for the Grammy nominated, Portland, OR based rock band, The Decemberists http://www.decemberists.com
The Decemberists have toured all over the world, performing for an extremely dedicated fanbase for over 20 years and have an impressive body of work that continues to evolve with each project.
In our conversation, we talked about how the Decemberists got together and what it’s like to keep a band together for such a long time and celebrating the band’s 20th anniversary during the pandemic.
We also talked about Nate’s volunteer work with the organization, Open Hearts Open Minds https://www.ohomoregon.org OHOM is an Oregon-based non-profit organization that supports individuals serving prison sentences through arts and dialogue—facilitating personal and institutional transformation and growth.
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Nate Query!
