Sharing a bold, contemporary, yet timeless take on the genres that paved the way for today’s sound, Houston native Nate Vickers is proving once and for all that modern rock is alive with that. The release of his debut album, "A Little Too Late," with authentic emotion blended with frenetic energy, is an explosive statement from an artist rapidly developing his space in the scene.
From those early muses, grunge gods Nirvana, and raw alternative acts like Linkin Park and Seether, Vickers returned to the foray with a series of grimy songs that feel nostalgic and invigorating. His breakout success on social media, where he currently and collectively boasts 1.4 million TikTok followers and 450K fans on Instagram, has already made him a force to be reckoned with. Now, with "A Little Too Late," he’s primed to elevate that momentum.
The album has already received a considerable splash, prominently placed on the cover of Pandora’s New Rock playlist (1.6M listeners) and Octane Radio, SiriusXM’s top rock channel. Each of the seven tracks holds its own. Still, Vickers’ ability to intertwine captivating melodies with blistering vocals shines through on more anthemic cuts, "Over & Over" and "I’m Fine," destined to be blasted at full volume.
Just under 23 minutes, "A Little Too Late" is a concise introduction to a nascent artist about to come into their own. As the modern rock revival CONTINUES to make waves, Nate Vickers has taken the lead. Everything you need for great storytelling and SKIsHE-SKISHAs will never go out of fashion.
