Nate Wood on Ameerikast pärit jazzmuusik ja multiinstrumentalist. Oma uues erakordselt nõudlikus sooloprojektis mängib Grammy auhinnale nomineeritud muusik korraga nii analoogsüntesaatorit, trummi kui ka basskitarri ning laulab samal ajal. Iga lugu salvestatakse esimese katsega, ilma üledubleerimise ja eelsalvestatud põhjadeta. Projekti nimi fOUR tähistabki Woodi mängimas nelja instrumenti kõigi oma nelja jäsemega korraga. Kuulda saab muusikat, mis kõigub kosmilise progeroki ja elektroonilise instrumentaali vahel.
Praeguseks levib fOURi nime all YouTube’is ja Facebookis kulutulena terve hulk videoid, osad millest on kogunud ka üle miljoni vaatamise. Suvel 2018 ilmus projekti esimene täispikk album „X.it“ ning 2019. aasta jaanuaris järgnes sellele esinemine NPR Musicu korraldatud ülipopulaarses videosarjas Tiny Desk Concert. Sellest ajast saadik on fOUR ühemehebändina mööda maailma ringi tuuritanud. fOURi jätkuplaat ilmub käesoleval aastal.
Nate Wood on Grammyle nomineeritud kvinteti Kneebody asutajaliige. Lisaks sellele on ta esinenud või salvestanud koos paljude märkimisväärsete artistidega, sealhulgas Taylor Hawkins and the Coattail Ridersi, Dave Grohli, Brian May ja Roger Taylori (Queen), Chris Squire’i (Yes), Elliot Eastoni (The Cars), Chaka Khani, Wayne Krantzi, Billy Childsi, Tigran Hamasyani, Donny McCaslini ja veel paljude teistega. Nate Woodi toetajad on Gretsch Drums, Istanbul Agop Cymbals, Promark Sticks, Remo Drumheads, Drum Workshop Hardware, D'addario Strings, Aguilar Amplification ja Moollon Instruments.
The Grammy Nominated multi-instrumentalist has created a project that is a truly ambitious take on going solo. Wood is playing everything — analog synths, drums, bass and vocals — at the same time! As well, he’s recording every song in one pass with no overdubs, click track or pre-recorded backing tracks. “That’s why it’s called fOUR, because it’s me with four limbs playing four instruments at once.” fOUR veers from complex, space-y prog rock to electronic-tinged instrumentals.
Currently, fOUR has released a number of viral videos on YouTube and Facebook (where some of the clips have topped one million views). fOUR’s first full length record “X.it” was released in the summer 2018, following with a performance on NPRs “Tiny Desk” in January 2019. Since then, fOUR has been touring around the globe with his one man show. fOUR's followup record will be released in 2022.
“Wood’s brain splits attention between four synthesizers, an electric bass and a drum kit, all while singing about futurism. Wood plays all of fOUR’s tunes in one take. No backing tracks. No overdubs. Nate Wood pulls us into an industrial, neon dystopia with tunes that stand alone as headphone music without the accompanying visuals, meticulously crafted and with precise execution. This isn’t novelty music. You’re hearing (and seeing) a mastermind songwriter and mad scientist at work.” – NPR Music
