Inarticulate Nature Boy is the debut solo album by School of Fish singer Josh Clayton-Felt. It was released on May 19, 1996 through A&M Records.

Background and recording

After the break-up of School of Fish, singer-guitarist Clayton-Felt began learning to play keyboards, bass, and drums in addition to guitar and began recording 25 songs over the next few years. Although his friend and former bandmate Michael Ward added some guitar tracks, and he had a little help on percussion, Clayton-Felt for the most part played all the other instruments off this album.

Critical reception

Critic Roch Pariesien gave the album three out of five stars, calling it "more casual, relaxed, and eccentric" than Clayton-Felt's work in School of Fish. Pariesien concludes his review by lumping Clayton-Felt "into a loose class of former-band-frontman solo artists" such as Michael Been of The Call and Ian McNabb of The Icicle Works. However, he adds, "If anyone out there, just to prove me wrong, chooses to start a campaign to make Nature Boy a huge hit rather than a tiny cult phenomenon, please let me know so I can be first in line to buy a second copy."
