Steve Gunn

Steve Gunn, creator of virtuosic, psychedelic folk rock, will play a concert at Warsaw's Clouds.

Steve Gunn is a New York-based guitarist and songwriter whose style is characterised by a unique blend of folk, blues, free jazz and psychedelia. He has been active for almost fifteen years both as a solo artist, but also recording in duos and bands for labels such as Matador Records, Three Lobed Recordings, Paradise of Bachelors and RVNG. His recordings feature virtuosically played intricate arrangements, cryptic lyrics and delicate vocals, transforming broad stylistic influences into his own strand of psychedelic Americana.

His latest album Let the Moon Be a Planet (RVNG Intl.), recorded in collaboration with pianist David Moore of Bing & Ruth, was released in March this year. The album Glass Band (Three Lobed) with John Truscinski and Bill Nace, on the other hand, was released at the end of July. Steve is currently, as he has been for most of his time, working on new music.
