Atlanta, get ready to raise the roof at one of the city's most iconic venues. NateWantsToBattle is bringing the Phantom Burial Tour to The Masquerade on April 4, 2026, and if you think this is just another concert night, you clearly haven't witnessed what this man does to a crowd. This is going to be an event Atlanta's passionate anime and pop-punk music community will be talking about for years.

Who Is NateWantsToBattle?

If you've spent any time in the anime music universe, you already know the name. Nate Smith — known to fans worldwide as NateWantsToBattle — has built one of the most loyal and energetic fanbases in the YouTube-to-live-stage pipeline, amassing millions of followers through his explosive anime covers, original tracks, and unfiltered passion for the genre. He doesn't just perform music — he channels the soul of the characters and stories fans grew up loving and turns it into a live experience that hits different.

From his viral anime covers to his deeply personal original catalog, Nate has carved out a lane that is entirely his own. The Phantom Burial Tour represents a new chapter — darker, more cinematic, and more ambitious than anything he's brought to the road before. This isn't background music. This is a full-on theatrical sonic experience.

Cam Steady on the Bill — Don't Sleep on the Support

Joining Nate on this run is Cam Steady, an artist who brings his own brand of high-energy performance to the stage. If you're arriving early thinking the opener is just background noise while you grab a drink — think again. Cam Steady is the kind of act that turns first-time listeners into die-hard fans by the end of a single set. Show up early, Atlanta. You've been warned.
