About Nathan Evans & The Saint Phnx Band
Nathan Evans is a singer from Airdrie, near Glasgow, who was working as a postman when his videos of himself singing traditional sea shanties began spreading on TikTok. His version of the New Zealand whaling song "Wellerman", reworked with the producers 220 Kid and Billen Ted, went to number one on the UK singles chart.
On stage he is backed by members of the Scottish rock group Saint PHNX, who give the shanties and his own folk-pop songs a full electric arrangement with drums and guitars in place of the bare unaccompanied voice of the early clips.
