Slanted artist Nate Huss has much to celebrate this Valentine’s Day with a new bride, new management, and a new single, “Down To Love”, just hitting at CHR.

Huss married his college sweetheart, Emily Marie Hiiva, on November 24th in his hometown of Phoenix, Arizona. The happy couple met during their freshman year at Northern Arizona University. Now graduated and holding a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Emily has also permanently captured the heart of one of Christian music’s most eligible young bachelors! Huss recalls the proposal was a traditionally romantic one-even if the location was a ‘little out-of-the way!’

“Emily has a mountain that’s been her favourite place since junior high school to just go everyday and think and pray. I flew back home to Phoenix after playing some concerts without her knowing I was coming. I surprised her by meeting her at the mountain. I had scattered rose petals up the path and I was waiting at the top-dressed in my best black suit with roses and the ring,” Huss recalls.

Also new on Huss’s ‘08 career agenda is his representation by Derek Bruner Management. Bruner, whose background includes road management, radio promotion and A&R with Slanted Records, formed his own management company in June of 2007. Huss joins JUMP5, Sammy Ward, and Guest as priority clients for the Franklin, Tennessee based firm. Notes Bruner, “We are making a major push for good visibility slots for Huss on this year’s festival circuit-we’ve confirmed Atlanta Fest and several other major stages, with a full announcement to come.”

“Down To Love” can be found on Huss’ debut release Here With Me specially priced at $12.99 and available now at Christian retailers across Canada. Give the song a spin on Huss’ YMZ artist page. And celebrate Valentine’s Day by giving someone special the gift of music.
