Born Alexander Akiloe Philip Modiano in 1983 in San Francisco, California. Natty moved to London, England with his family at the age of one, and was educated at Highgate School. His musical eclecticism of today reflects the differing tastes of his parents. His white father, being English of Italian descent, loved the classic folk music of Neil Young and Bob Dylan. His mother is Black from Southern Africa - was very into Motown, Al Green, Sixties Jamaican music and Afro-Beat. Having started writing songs at an early age, he eventually found himself working in a London recording studio as a tea boy before working his way up to become a sound engineer, working mainly with indie rock acts.
He decided to put a 4 piece band together and began playing at open mic nights before launching his own eclectic club night Vibes And Pressure. His gigs attracted the attention of Atlantic Records.
Natty's first full single release, "July", entered the UK Singles Charts on 27 July 2008 at number 68. On 4 August 2008 Natty released his debut album Man like I, featuring songs including "Cold Town" and "July". "July" had an official remix produced by Crazy Cousinz and co-produced by Nat Powers. Man Like I entered the UK Album Charts on 10 August 2008 at number 21. In May and June 2008 Natty began his first solo headline tour with support from Smoke Feathers and Elvin. Natty recently played with Sam Duckworth (Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly) performing a cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division. Instrumental versions of his songs Badman and Coloured Souls appeared in the Electronic Arts videogame Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09.
The following is a list of minor characters that first appeared on the Channel 4soap operaHollyoaks in 2009, by first appearance.
Natty
Natty, played by former Emmerdale actor Danny Tennant, made his first on-screen appearance on 2 February 2009.
Tennant originally auditioned for another role, but producers asked him to audition for the role of Natty in which he was successful.
On 31 March 2009, Natty invited his friend Daniel Raven to meet Ste. The two also became friends. In May, Natty revealed he had a son whom he gave up because he could not cope. Daniel, Natty and Abi Raven run a charity called 'Kidz with Kidz', they set it up for young teenagers who are struggling parenthood. Any parents that they feel are struggling, the charity will take the baby and give it to a better home. On 21 May, he comforted an upset Zoe Carpenter over her failed film project, they shared a kiss. In June, he got a job at the SU Bar they soon become a couple despite Abi and Daniel trying to sabotage their relationship. It appeared Natty is a victim of a previous scam set up by Daniel and Abi, in which he was also drugged and received crank calls until he snapped, resulting in losing custody of his child. When Abi and Daniel attempted to steal Lucas Hay, Natty helped Ste get him back. He was not seen again until October 2009, when he moved in briefly with Ste and started working at Relish. He has not been seen since.
