Some might even call him a “tour de force” as his songs pull n o punches in evoking the demons with which he has wrestled through much of his life.  \nThe GRAMMY-nominated multi-platinum singer/songwriter’s e arly releases\, I’m About To Come Alive\, The Sound Of A Million Dreams\ , I’m A Fire and Fighter\, ignited his reputation as an innovator and cr eative risk-taker yet left Nail feeling restless. This led to the departur e of the only record company home he’d ever known\, MCA Nashville\, wher e he’d formed friendships that endure even now. Through dealing with his own journey of mental health and the feeling of needing to “rebel again st what people expect you to be\,” Nail began making his most “organic ” work to date\, David Nail & The Well Ravens\, with Jason Hall and Andr ew Petroff. That project liberated Nail and propelled him into his next ad venture. Writing solo for the next few months led to his debut solo indepe ndent EP Oh\, Mother\, a reflective piece of work. Of the title track\, Ro lling Stone noted that “the song creeps in like a sunrise — quiet\, re strained cello and keys are the only underpinning for Nail’s powerful vo cals at first. But then it slowly builds to something more massive and maj estic.” That release was followed by Bootheel 2020 and Bootheel 2021\, p rojects dedicated to the singer/songwriter’s hometown in the “bootheel ” of Missouri. Nail released an EP titled Best of Me in 2023 and the tit le track has seen heavy press support and country radio airplay. 2024 brou ght more touring than ever\, two great single releases “If I Could Call ” and “Why” featuring Aubrie Sellers.  \nNail plans on releasing th e start of an excitingly different and elevated album project this year le aving behind any self-imposed restrictions. In Nail’s own words\, “My philosophy has always been\, I just hope to have a good enough year that I can have a next year while staying as true to myself as I possibly can. ” LAST-MODIFIED:20260817T062511Z LOCATION:The Ark\, 316 S.
