Nate Amos is a Brooklyn-based musician you might remember from his earlier Perfectly Imperfect appearance alongside Rachel Brown as their band Water From Your Eyes. He also releases solo music under the name This is Lorelei – his acclaimed album Box for Buddy, Box for Star came out last year, with the deluxe version released this past spring. He’s got some exciting things on the horizon: you can catch This is Lorelei at our show at Knockdown Center this Saturday, July 19, where he’ll be sharing the stage with Greg Freeman, Dirt Buyer, and feardorian. Water From Your Eyes fans can look forward to their upcoming record, It’s a Beautiful Place, and check out their latest single, “Playing Classics,” in the meantime. Lucky for us, Nate’s here to tell us what he’s been into.

wearing a watch so you don’t have to look at your phone to know what time it is

I would love to get rid of my phone entirely but it doesn’t really feel like an option right now. I try to look at it as little as possible but my sense of time ranges from just accurate enough that I feel confident about it to so wildly inaccurate that I feel like I have to check up on it constantly if I have anything important to do on a given day. As a result I end up spending all day accessible and on social media when all I really want is to not be bothered or subjected to the algorithm. Lorelei was taking the EU to UK ferry earlier this summer and there were mad duty free watches - I realized I should just get one so I was like hey should I buy this watch and the love of my life Al was like you should do research and buy one you want at home instead of impulse buying some random watch on a boat and that was definitely the right call. I bought a weird box of shortbread with King Charles on it for my roommate instead. When I got home I bought a cheap casio watch and it honestly is the best - I always know what time it is and I think I cut my phone time in half.
