NATO GREEN’S DEBUT ALBUM THE NATO GREEN PARTY RELEASED BY ROOFTOP COMEDY ON JUNE 5, 2012
On The Nato Green Party, Nato tells outrageous true stories of run-ins with anti-semitism and his involvement in protests and civil disobedience. He attacks the Holocaust, Occupy Wall Street, the state of the gay rights movement, electoral politics, and parenthood with a singularly fierce and funny point of view, rooted in a lifetime of involvement in the cultural and political left.

Praise for The Nato Green Party:
“I’ve always tried to provide the soundtrack to the revolution. Nato Green provides the laugh track.”
--Boots Riley of hip-hop group The Coup & Street Sweeper Social Club with Tom Morello.
“The Nato Green Party is funny, smart, thoughtful, goofy and political. As of now, I suffer no consequences for my steadfast belief that Nato is one of the funniest comics in our country, but I would stage a sit-in. If it fits in between my Ashtanga yoga and zine-making classes.”
--Maria Bamford, Comedian
“Nato Green is the real deal; cogent, hilarious and indispensable.”
--Greg Proops, Comedian, The Smartest Man in the World podcast
"Nato Green—an unabashed Left Coast, labor organizing, immigrant-loving, foodie—turns the art of laughing at himself into some of the most incisive comedy of our time. If you hate liberals or are one, he's the comic for you."
--Jeff Chang, Author of Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation, and Who We Be: The Colorization of America.
"I use clips of Nato's comedy into trainings for activists on campaign strategy all over the country. His comedy unveils our own contradictions and mistakes as activists, as well as hard truths about people in power. It produces the kind of laughter that holds our movement together."
--Joshua Kahn Russell, Ruckus Society & 350.org
