Nate Faker is the solo project of Nathan Hudson, the founding member, vocalist, and guitarist of the acclaimed Australian band Faker. As Nate Faker, Hudson breathes new life into Faker's iconic catalogue with reimagined versions of beloved tracks, exclusive unreleased material, and fresh surprises. Known for his emotionally charged songwriting and magnetic stage presence, Hudson continues to evolve artistically while staying true to the bold spirit that defined Faker's sound.
Faker broke through with their 2005 debut Addicted Romantic, produced by Lindsay Gravina. The album tackled provocative themes with a raw, fearless energy, earning critical praise and a nomination for Triple J's J Award. Its standout single "Hurricane" became a Triple J favourite, and despite lineup changes, the band maintained momentum with their striking lyrics and live energy, establishing themselves as a staple of Australia's indie rock scene.
In 2007, their second album Be the Twilight elevated the band's profile further. Led by the hit single "This Heart Attack," which reached the ARIA top 10, the album was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Paul Fox and marked a more immediate sound. Following major tours, including supporting Pink, Faker released Get Loved in 2011. After a hiatus and breakup in 2013, Faker returned in 2020 and are currently finalising a new album between Berlin and São Paulo.
