Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats came barreling out of 2015 with a self-titled album and "S.O.B.", a stomping, horn-blasting shout that sounds like a revival meeting in a roadhouse. Rateliff howls and hollers up front, and the band behind him is built for sweat: Patrick Meese on drums, Joseph Pope III on bass, Luke Mossman on guitar, Mark Shusterman on keys, and a horn section in Wesley Watkins on trumpet and Andy Wild on saxophone. "I Need Never Get Old" and "Wasting Time" prove they can slow the tempo without losing the grit.
Tearing at the Seams in 2018 brought "You Worry Me", "Hey Mama" and "A Little Honey", and a nomination for Duo/Group of the Year at the Americana Awards. The Future in 2021 went moodier and more reflective with "Survivor" and "Face Down in the Moment", and South of Here in 2024 delivered "Heartless" and "Call Me (Whatever You Like)". Old-school soul and roots rock, played like it still matters.
