Rodello’s Machine – Three Weeks To Go
Three Weeks To Go was written when the lyricist of Rodello’s Machine, Nate Donnis, was expecting a baby. The lyrics and tone of the song describe the anticipation of his first child and the feelings he had toward her.
With the earthy/robust vocals of Nate Donnis and the creative production of Kolby Knickerbocker, Rodello’s Machine takes on an animated and lively spirit, full of inspired melodies/lyrics on a warm acoustic backbone.
Their self titled EP (2009) has received multiple placements on nationwide TV programs including MTV’s Degrassi High, receives 1000’s of plays per week on Pandora Radio, and enjoys international distribution on syndicated radio.
Their new album “Red Dust” sets off on the same journey, featuring new musicians Phil Woodring (Drums), Jacob Miranda (Bass) and Balaji Raao (Hindustani vocals) who add their expertise and flavor to each song. The violin of Melissa Barrison contributes much to the unique sound with intricate lines that swim and dive between themes. A fan describes their sound as “Eddie Vedder meets Tom Waits at a folk festival”.
Nate enjoys early mornings (5:30am or earlier) and aimlessly wandering through Target shopping center, while Kolby finds pleasure in leisurely walks and tinkering on his car.
