He gained notice in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks when he held his birthday party at a fire station and performed a self-written song, "Firefighters" (later retitled, "Rosalina" for The Naked Brothers Band: The Movie).

Nat says:

I always loved it. I love the Beatles. I know every Beatles song. I wanted to be like them. It's all based on reality. It's not like work. It's things we might say or do or want to say or do. I like the feeling of creating something that wasn't there. If we have another season, I'm totally getting ideas.
