He was a member of Sunny Day Real Estate before joining the Foo Fighters in 1995 after Sunny Day Real Estate had disbanded. Although Sunny Day Real Estate reunited for two more albums (How It Feels To Be Something On and The Rising Tide), he stayed with the Foo Fighters. He then joined with other Sunny Day Real Estate members Jeremy Enigk and William Goldsmith to form The Fire Theft, who released a self-titled album in 2003.
He has scored the indie movie Our Burden Is Light, in which he also played a minor role as the main female character's best friend's boyfriend and bassist. The band he plays in the movie, Bleeder, consist of himself, Jessica Ballard and Taylor Hawkins.
He uses mostly Fender Precision Basses and Ampeg amplifiers.
Nate Mendel joined the Foo Fighters as the bassist, alongside Ex-Nirvana Drummer Dave Grohl. The band has since released five albums, and Mendel continues to play alongside Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett.
