Beginning his musical journey at 6 years old, Nahko began traveling widely in his teens, wrestling with identity, purpose, and perception. \n\nBusking on streets, selling CDs out of his guitar case, he earned a cult following. Backed by his band, Medicine For The People, Nahko\u2019s 2013 commercial breakout album Dark As Night landed in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart top 10. Medicine For The People played major festivals including Outside Lands, Electric Forest, Wanderlust, and Bumbershoot, and sold-out Colorado\u2019s 10,000-capacity Red Rocks Amphitheater as headliners. \n\nhttps://www.nahko.com/\nhttps://www.instagram.com/nahkobear/ \nhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7gkeG... \n\nConnect with Jessica Depatie:\nINSTAGRAM - @jessicadepatie_ https://www.instagram.com/jessicadepatie_\nEMAIL: jessica@posttraumaticgrowth.film\nWEBSITE: www.shadowmedia.group\n\nLOVE THE SHOW?
