Nate Smith lights up the KEXP studio in a live session recorded on October 1, 2025. Joined by James Francies on keys and synth, Josh Johnson on alto sax, and Ben Williams on bass, the drummer powers through four vibrant tracks—“UNDEFEATED,” “AUTOMATIC,” “LAST SIGHT,” and “MAGIC DANCE.” Host Larry Mizell Jr. and audio engineer Kevin Suggs capture every nuance, while Julian Martlew handles mastering.
Shot by a crew of four (Jim Beckmann, Carlos Cruz, Scott Holpainen & Luke Knecht) and edited by Luke Knechtn, this set delivers an intimate, high-energy jazz experience. Check out the full performance on KEXP or explore more on Waterbaby Music’s Bandcamp.
