NAT JOHNSON is the former singer, songwriter and guitarist of MONKEY SWALLOWS THE UNIVERSE - a Sheffield based five piece band who released two critically acclaimed albums earlier in the decade.

Since the band split in 2008 Nat has embarked on what has so far proved to be a very fruitful solo career with 'Dirty Rotten Soul', her debut single for Thee Sheffield Phonographic Corporation which was made Single of the Week by Steve Lamacq on 6 Music.

Now with her debut album all recorded Nat has assembled a new backing band THE FIGUREHEADS (featuring MSTU co-founder Kevin Gori, Chris LOFTUS OF FURY OF THE HEADTEACHERS and Neil Piper of CHAMPION KICKBOXER) for a series of gigs throughout the Summer and Autumn - all leading up to the release of debut album 'Roman Radio' preceeded by the double 'A' side single 'Wonderful Emergency' b/w 'Don't Worry Baby'.

"One part folk and one part the jangle of The Smiths with the sweet, fragile, alluring voice of Nat" - Rough Trade
