   Electropop Artist, Nearly a Nation, Keep

   Columbus, Ohio-based electropop singer/songwriter/producer Nick Long, also   
   known as Nearly a Nation, is releasing his new album "Conquest" on April 14th,   
   featuring inspiring stories and extraordinary sounds after a year of hard work   
   and dedication. NaN's    
   music talent and sense of national consciousness is sure to make this album   
   stand out and shine within the electronic music scene.   
      
   Conquest is the second album of what NaN alludes to as a seven-part series,   
   one he plans to finish over the course of the next five to six years. Despite   
   tackling such heavy topics as mass surveillance on the track "Strange Days"   
   and government    
   corruption on "Tornado," one still has the sense NaN remains optimistic with   
   tracks like "Pioneers" and "You and I Will Be Alright." Long's ability to   
   juxtapose critiques of our current world with hope for the future gives   
   meaning to his moniker, Nearly    
   a Nation.   
      
   "Conquest" Track Listing:   
   1. Strange Days   
   2. Pioneers   
   3. Tornado   
   4. I Wanna Feel Everything   
   5. Improvise   
   6. All We Want   
   7. You and I Will Be Alright   
   8. Weightless   
   9. Nothing Comes Close to You   
   10. The Beginning All Over Again   
      
   When expressing his ideologies in his music, NaN does the writing, recording   
   and mixing all by himself as a one person band. In addition, he also designed   
   a number of the tonal/instrumental sounds himself for Conquest. His debut   
   self-released album    
   Outburst proved his musical ability by winning him Best Song Dance/Electronica   
   for January 2016 from The Akademia, which described his single 'Radiate' as   
   "demonstrating unusual vocal talent and musical imagination... [and it] may   
   very well be the power    
   pop vehicle to lift Nearly a Nation to the global stage."   
      
   Other Press Quotes:   
      
   "The kind of talent that belongs on the big stage."
