**Festival Appearance
Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and producer Natalie Bergman announces her sophomore solo album, My Home Is Not In This World, out on July 18 via Third Man Records [Pre-Order/Save HERE]. The project arrives with the release of the album’s lead single and cinematic video, “Gunslinger” a genre-bending desert anthem that introduces the album's spellbinding sonic palette. The video was directed by Andreas Ekelund and stars American author, film maker and musician Ian Svenonius (the
Make-Up, Escape-ism).
Listen to “Gunslinger” HERE.
If you re-envisioned and rebuilt Motown somewhere in the California desert, it might sound something like My Home Is Not In This World. Recorded analog-to-tape and produced by her brother and longtime collaborator Elliot Bergman, the 12-track record shimmers with gospel soul, country-western heartache, and rock 'n' roll grit, all filtered through Natalie’s unmistakable voice.
“The title is an acknowledgement of my longing for this place over yonder,” Natalie reveals. “It represents my desire to not be a part of what’s going on digitally. I was trying to be the antithesis of a lot of modern music. There are some earthy sounds and many of the songs are about love. At the same time, it’s about finding my place on earth—even though I’ve never truly felt like I belonged here.”
“Gunslinger” leads the charge, with Natalie’s smoky vocals riding atop a ghostly guitar line, widescreen strings, and a slow-burning groove that evokes classic western film scores and vintage soul. Lyrically, it paints a portrait of unrequited love and yearning, for someone out of reach, or maybe a place that doesn’t quite exist.
Where her critically acclaimed 2021 debut solo album Mercy was steeped in grief and spiritual reckoning, written in the wake of the sudden loss of her father and stepmother, My Home Is Not In This World emerges from new life and rebirth. Natalie gave birth to her son, Arthur, in 2024, and the experience of motherhood has transformed her music into something equally tender and transcendent.
Bergman’s solo work and debut album Mercy received widespread critical acclaim and acknowledgement from the likes of NPR and Rolling Stone. With My Home Is Not In This World, she steps further into her own mythology, one that feels both grounded in lived experience and elevated by an otherworldly grace.As she continues to evolve, Natalie Bergman is ready to move hearts, shake spirits, and remind us all where home truly lies.
“GUNSLINGER” is available everywhere now.
