We couldn’t be more proud of Nate Utesch, who, along with 39 other deserving youngsters, was recognized by Greater Fort Wayne Business Weekly at their annual 40 under 40 ceremony. Nate’s work at One Lucky Guitar and continued service to our community — including the tremendous work of his band (Metavari) and the beautiful, thought-provoking arts & lit quarterly he curates (Ferocious) — have helped create a musical and artistic landscape that was unheard of in the Summit City just a few years ago.
