TOURING WITH KURT VILE
TIME OFF OUT JUNE 18TH ON PARADISE OF BACHELORS
Guitar virtuoso, Steve Gunn has blessed with a perfect track to kick off summer, "Water Wheel" from his upcoming album, Time Off. Steve’s first album with a full band featuring John Truscinski (drums) and Justin Tripp (bass), Time Off showcases the virtuosic guitarist’s oblique character sketches and story-songs, using the trio format to launch his compositions and singing into new, luminous strata. This is Gunn at the top of his game, utterly unique but steeped in traditions both vernacular and avant-garde. It’s the perfect head-nodder for those upcoming summer sessions!
HEAR: "WATER WHEEL"
Steve will be touring this Spring and Summer with Kurt Vile (as opener and as a Violator) and with Daughn Gibson. Here’s what those gentlemen have to say:
“It’s impossible to just talk about Steve. He’s too good! He’s so good; just listen to him. What can I even say about him that touches that? I just want to listen to him. I remember I was so excited when I discovered Jack Rose, someone living in my city who had caught the torch from Fahey. Hearing Steve, I immediately received that same deep appreciation and was completely blown away, beyond. Just growing up with “roots music” (so to speak) and immediately seeing something that was real and totally pure, no gimmicks. But he takes it further, and on his own terms, and all the while it sounds old, and new, and timeless. Dude’s a head, what can I say? It made me want to be a part of it myself.”
