Already as a kid Nathalie Weider used to sing all day long. The records of her parent’s collection built her first exercise basis. During a family ski holiday in Austria at age of 10 she had by chance her first gig, just starting singing with the piano player. Her father, who also had played music for 30 years, saw this talent and took his daughter to join him for some concerts. In the early nineties they made some first recordings in a studio for fun. Soon regular gigs followed in Switzerland, Austria and Germany.
In 1994 Nathalie enjoyed her first big performance with an audience of 4000 people and definitely got to know and to love the adrenalin running through the veins when performing on stage. In the following years she worked with several producers and recorded and published several CDs and could perform them at many live gigs and on TV.
However, just singing wasn’t enough for the Swiss girl. In 2003 she took the matters into her own hands, started writing songs herself, changed the record company and started working with producer Michael Kull, wombat music, with whom she produced her album intensiv, which was published in 2004. intensiv was a totally new and intensive experience for her being involved into the production from the beginning to the end.
After two years with numerous live gigs, many new ideas were coming up in Nathalie's mind which wanted to be transfered into music. So she spent the last months mainly with songwriting and in the record studio and can look back on a exciting production time. Now she is very proud to present her new album eigentlich nicht (meaning "not really"), which is available on the market as of now and contains a duet with Chip Hawkes (the Tremeloes). Her performance at the International Artist Meeting in Waldbronn Neurod/Germany proved that she is on the right track with her new songs: On 23.11.2006 she was awarded with the “Deutsche Showpreis” (German Show Trophy) for the performance of the first three produced new songs.
eigentlich nicht promises powerful German pop-rock reflecting the emotions of a passionate young woman. Emotions which Nathalie Weider interprets bluntly as well as wrapped into ironic and witty stories. This combination and Nathalie Weider’s unique voice make her new record something not only very nice to hear but also an album which you enjoy listening consciously.
