Nathan Osmond is number two of the eight sons born to Alan and Suzanne Osmond. His father, Alan, was the leader of the original Osmond Brothers comprised of Alan, Wayne, Merrill, and Jay. With a rich musical heritage and being practically born with music coursing through his veins, it is no small wonder that Nathan has become the success that he is today, particularly on the country music scene. American television and radio host, Larry King, has said about Nathan Osmond, “Nathan Osmond is a wonderful new talent whose musical genes shine brightly through.” Four of his singles – “Sweet,” “The Tailgate Song,” “There’s A Whole Lot About a Woman,” and “Stars and Stripes” which he co-wrote all hit #1 on several Country charts for up to 4 weeks in a row. His music videos are featured on CMT and GAC, as well as, national television shows, and he has had the honor of sharing the stage with such big-name stars as Chris Young, Carrie Underwood, Clay Walker, Lonestar, and Martina McBride, to name but a few.
He also has several impressive accolades to his credit including a nomination for “Male Vocalist of the Year”, “New Artist of the Year”, and “Country Breakthrough Artist of the Year” by the New Music Awards in Los Angeles.
