Steve Gunn + Lee Ranaldo + Meg Baird

Since 2007, Steve Gunn has crafted a signature blend of acoustic Americana, bluesy boogie-down and deep, nomadic jams. More recently, he's evolved into a proper singer-songwriter, a streak that continued with last year's Eyes on the Lines, an ethereal yet crusty, backwoods-style gem. Expect plenty of world-weary introspection and pedal-steel–bathed radiance, along with shuffling ditties and homegrown swamplands chug.
