An acoustic fingerstyle guitarist of great elegance and craft, Louisville's Nathan Salsburg has built up an impressive résumé as a collaborator and sideman to artists like Joan Shelley, James Elkington, Will Oldham, and Jake Xerxes Fussell while quietly amassing his own catalog of solo releases like 2013's Hard for to Win and Can't Be Won and 2018's Third. Salsburg pivoted on Landwerk and Landwerk No. 2 by building new pieces from looped snippets of Yiddish and klezmer music off 78 rpm discs augmented with his own guitar playing. 2021's Psalms offered ten songs almost entirely based on the Old Testament Tehillim. In 2024, he and Elkington revived their ongoing partnership with All Gist, the duo's third album of instrumental guitar duets, and in the same year Salsburg and Oldham recorded a pair of extended interpretations of songs by the band Lungfish on Hear the Children Sing the Evidence.
Nathan Salsburg has also released music as a member of Halifax Pier.
