"The big gigs: 10 concerts to see in the Twin Cities this week"

"Sometimes with a wicked grin and sometimes with gnashed teeth, this rising Twin Cities lyrical rocker spoofs and lambasts homophobia, hatred, hypocrites and sometimes her own eccentricities on her second self-produced album, "Three Man Army," which she made with help from the Music Forward Foundation's LGBTQ+ Emerging Artist Award. "I kissed more boys than you / but somehow I think I'm more man than you," she sings in the folky opening tune "Kisses," a mellow start to what turns into a stormy affair equal parts Alanis and Paramore." - Star Tribune

Bio

          Natalie Fideler is the songwriter and front-person of her self-titled project based in Minneapolis, MN. Natalie’s indie nerd-rock is a funky, fresh mix of pop, R&B, and alternative rock that will leave you dancing and ripping your heart out at the same time. Her vulnerable lyrics transform each song into a story that speaks the truth of raw human experience, whether it be tongue in cheek or right on the nose.

          Natalie’s solo music career began in 2018 with the release of her debut album “Steak & Eggs” which features Natalie herself on all instruments and vocals. She has since recruited Hailey Jacobsen on bass and Leigh Underwood on drums, and they perform as a band with Natalie on guitar, keyboards, and lead vocals. In May of 2022, Natalie released her sophomore record “Three Man Army” which features this power-trio.

          Wes Muilenburg of Ear Coffee described Natalie saying, “[She] typifies the best kind of modern songwriter: exceptionally self-aware, willing to inject humor into what could be a morose situation, and capable of coming up with hooks for days.”

           Some of Natalie’s most recent endeavors include selling-out her debut album release party, receiving the $10,000 LGBTQ+ Emerging Artist Award from the Music Forward Foundation, having both of her full-length records accepted to MNSpin, headlining the legendary 7th St Entry of First Avenue, performing in-studio TV and radio features with Prairie Public Broadcasting, KVSC, and KDSU, and getting regular airplay on radio stations such as 93X, The Current, and KFAI.
