Nate Mcquivey

As the SLUG Soundwaves Producer, Nate Mcquivey books guests, hosts interviews and edits audio for SLUG’s biweekly music podcast. He is also the station manager at KUAA and a talent buyer for The DLC at Quarters, as well as a talented musician and DJ himself. Mcquivey says that working at SLUG has opened his eyes to so many more local bands, artists and events that he never would have known about before — just when he thought it was “Small Lake City.” Most recently, he conducted live recordings with dozens of local bands at SLUG’s 36th Anniversary Party, his favorite SLUG event because of the fun and chaotic concept of 36 local bands each playing one song. Outside of his commitment to accessible, community-run local media, Mcquivey also loves skateboarding and snowboarding. If you see him and his sweet pup Cedar around town, be sure to ask him about the coolest show he’s attended recently.
