Nathan Felix is a Hispanic composer known for his immersive operas and experimental films whose work has been premiered in Bulgaria, Portugal, Spain, Japan, China, Sweden, Denmark, Mongolia and the USA and has been featured on the BBC, MTV, NPR, TPR & PBS. Felix was the band leader for The Noise Revival Orchestra (2004-2016), a 13-piece experimental orchestral project that toured in Europe, China, Taiwan and Japan. Felix, a non-award winning composer, often focuses on telling Latinx themed and minority stories and on his hispanic heritage. He is the 2024 recipient of Opera America’s prestigious IDEA Grant for his work, Faces in the Flames. Felix serves as the founding director for the Opera Austin Festival.
In 2016, Felix was featured on PBS & nominated for a Lonestar Emmy for work on his 6-Piano project in which he restored six pianos for a concert featuring two new pieces. After the concert, Felix donated the pianos to schools in lower income neighborhoods in Austin. The 6 Piano Project has since been commissioned in San Antonio (2016), Barcelona (2017), Melbourne (2017) and Houston (2019).
In 2025, Felix worked with Garrett T. Capps who produced a new single, Out to Dance, for Felix who subsequently started a country band with Jonathan Nesvadba (bass), Joel Nesvadba (keys), Phil McJunkins (pedal steel) and Ben Humphreys (drums). The band is currently recording a 10-track country album, Texas Born Texas Bred, with engineer Bill Baird in hopes of a spring 2026 release.
