Nathan "Natrix" Ricks

Hunter Hayes

Hello! I am Nathan Ricks, the Founder, and Owner of Natrix Entertainment LLC. I am a Drummer/ Music Director/ Arranger/ and Programmer. I am a recent Berklee College of Music Graduate (2017), with a major concentration in Music Performance with a Minor in Music Production. Born & raised in Motown (Detroit, Michigan) my principal instrument is the drum kit. I've worked with several distinguished artists: Lionel Richie, Hunter Hayes, Justine Skye, Arin Ray, Disney Channel, and many many more. I'm a seasoned Gospel musician who plays a diversity of musical genres and winner of multiple drum competitions, and band awards during my tenure at Berklee – I’ve also supported new artists in a Music Director role. In addition to my extensive drumming experience, I am highly proficient at reading, improvising, composing, and music production.

My professional and philosophical desire is “to ensure that everyone that hears the music I play will experience the optimal pleasure conceived when what you hear frees you to express yourself.
