Nathan Gosnell wins Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest

Posted July 3, 2023 by Floydian Slip

Nathan Gosnell has won our 11th annual Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest.

Gosnell, from Montrose, Iowa, took the prize with his recording of “Comfortably Numb.”

A multi-instrumentalist since he was 10, he can be seen and heard performing with his bands StumpTown and Big Guitars.

This past week, Gosnell had his winning entry played on “Floydian Slip” episode #1420 — a special episode of our weekly Floyd radio show that was devoted entirely to other artists’ recordings of Floyd music.

He also receives $200 in merchandise from the official webstore of Pink Floyd, shop.pinkfloyd.com.

Thanks to everyone who submitted entries to this year’s contest.
