Lost & Nameless
“Foot stomping, heart racing, exciting music...” As this fan attests, there’s something about
dueling fiddles, vigorous guitar playing, and an air-tight rhythm section that compels your body
to move. Tastefully pairing a wide dynamic range and an intimate connection with the listeners,
the Austin-based fiddle-driven folk rock quartet, Lost & Nameless gets you out of your chair
and onto the dance floor.
Founding members Chris E. Peterson (fiddle / lap steel / mandolin) and Patrick Conway
(acoustic & electric guitars / bass / vocals) met in St. Louis in 1993 and formed an instant bond
playing fiddle tunes and Patrick’s original songs. Their musical travels took them throughout the
USA and Europe until the band settled in Austin, TX in 2006. The band has since grown to
include Kimberly Zielnicki (fiddle / bass / vocals / ukulele) and Nathan Quiring (keyboards /
accordion).
All four members are highly skilled and well trained musicians with a sincere love for making
music together. The band’s unique chemistry on stage creates an intimate atmosphere in the
room and draws listeners into the music. As the intensity builds, it is not uncommon to catch
band members dancing on chairs and fueling the fire of excitement in the room.
The band’s collective goal is to “put on an insanely great live show,” and anyone who has seen
the band will agree that Lost & Nameless delivers just that.
