Steve Gunn announces new album with lead tracks "Other You" and "Reflection"

"Other You" and "Reflection" are the first tasters of Gunn's forthcoming album, and also mark his first releases of 2021, following last year's cover of "Clay Pigeons" with Shannon Lay.

Gunn's sixth album Other You was recorded at Mant Studios with producer Rob Schnapf (Beck, Elliott Smith, Cass McCombs, Kurt Vile) and longtime friend and collaborator Justin Tripp.

The album, which will follow 2019's The Unseen In Between, will feature contributions from Juliana Barwick, Mary Lattimore, Bridget St. John, Jeff Parker, Bill MacKay, Ben Bertrand, drummer Ryan Sawyer (TV On The Radio, Thurston Moore, Gang Gang Dance), and more.

Gunn says of the album title, "I came up with this title when we were recording vocals and Rob was very into harmonies. There was a third part and I just couldn’t find the note. I couldn’t vocalise it. He went in and took my voice and put it into his computer program, then he could playback and “sing” the note with my voice using the computer. And he said, ‘Sing to the other you.’ So I was singing along to myself singing a note I couldn’t sing."
