Guitarist and songwriter Steve Gunn invites listeners into a realm of serene contemplation with his new single, “Sky (debesis).” The track, which begins with an extended single note, is the opening piece from his forthcoming solo instrumental album, Music for Writers, due for release on August 15th via Three Lobed Recordings.
“Sky (debesis)” serves as a perfect introduction to the album’s ethos, offering an open, textured soundscape that moves with a gentle, unhurried pace. The music is a wordless narrative, designed to be a companion for thought, reflection, and the quiet moments in between.
Music for Writers is a collection born from the intersection of stillness and motion, recorded in locations spanning from Brooklyn to Berlin and Latvia. Using a minimal setup of guitar, synthesizers, and field recordings, Gunn crafts small, immersive environments. The album is a response to the world’s subtle cues—the play of light in a room, the distant hum of engines, the silent passing of a day.
This is music as a form of quiet observation, shaped by both external and internal landscapes. It embraces anxiety and peace, the known and the unknown. With “Sky (debesis),” Steve Gunn provides a subtle yet steady ground for daydreaming, work, or simply a place to rest and watch the world unfold.
