Meet Nathaniel K. Lynn, a Milwaukee-based violinist whose journey began at just three years old with the Suzuki method. From his early years performing in the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra to his current work as a freelance musician, Nathaniel’s artistry blends classical discipline with the soulful spontaneity of funk, R&B, and modern indie sounds.

Influenced by both orchestral traditions and the groove of 1970s soul, Nathaniel channels emotion through every note — whether it’s joy, envy, or reflection. For him, each performance is about creating a living emotional experience for his audience, keeping them connected and inspired from start to finish.

🎶 “When I play, I like to pick a single emotion and build the song around it. I want the audience to feel that journey.”
