Star Rover

Star Rover is as much an engine for collaboration as it is a band. Since forming in 2013 over a love of John Fahey’s music, the duo has recorded and toured with a long and wide ranging cast of musicians: Sam Amidon, Daniel Rossen, Larkin Grimm, Benjamin Lazar Davis, Jesse Harris, Petra Haden, Tiago Iorc, Ricardo Dias Gomes (Caetano Veloso), and many others. They’ve toured in Asia, Europe, and South America, and played hundreds of shows in New York City, developing a repertoire of melodic-psychedelic songs and a rhythmically aggressive, telepathic improvisational language. They will be touring the United States in support of Okkervil River in spring of 2018.

"Star Rover, the Brooklyn twosome of guitarist Will Graefe and drummer Jeremy Gustin, specializes in an alluring sort of pastoral punk that suggests a collaboration between Deerhoof and John Fahey." [Time Out New York]
