AUDIEN

Connecticut native Nathaniel Rathbun, known as Audien, has spent over a decade refining his progressive house sound, breaking out with his Grammy-nominated remix of Bastille's "Pompeii" in 2014 and releasing his debut album, Escapism, in 2019. His music blends uplifting melodies with driving rhythms, often featuring layered synth textures and emotive vocals, evident in recent singles like "In Every Life" and "High Hopes" (2026). It's a sound built for expansive spaces and shared euphoria.
