The former postie from Airdrie rose to fame after going viral on Tiktok with his sea shanty song Wellerman.

Now Nathan has revealed he got some tattoos to mark his highlights - and announced he has also written a new song, The Last Shanty, which will come out on May 6.

As he prepared to catch a flight to Dusseldorf for the start of his European tour, Nathan told fans: "So while I'm sitting waiting on my flight I thought I'd give you a new tattoo update."

Showing off his already inked arm, he said: "As you can see there are a few new additions. We've got the rope then the sea and a little door.

"Those first two are for everything Wellerman has brought me and I thought I'd acknowledge it too.

"And the third - the doors always open - you never know when."

Showing off an outline of dog and a female figure, representing his wife and black labrador, he added: "This is Holly and Luna and Holly drew it then I got it tattooed and also got a star as well."

He added: "Overall I"m very chuffed. I think they look absolutely class. I got it in Glasgow at Luv Ink."
