Sounds Like
"Low Ones music translates as soft-focused dream sequences. . .another moony groovy Tucson band." Jamie Manser (Downtown Tucsonan) "For fans of Neil Young, Velvet Underground & Giant Sand. Don't miss the dark semi-acoustic drone of the Low Ones." Tucsonscene.com "Good stuff." K. Kerry (Plush).
LOW ONES is the band vehicle for prolific singer-songwriter Chris Gunn. LOW ONES swerve between acoustic sounds and electric break-downs. LOW ONES currently have five releases available through Track 9 Records: "Sleeping Underneath The Sea" (2006), "Reconfiguration" (2007), "Swimming To The Moon" (2007), & "Songs For Nightbirds" (2008). The new CD "No More Darkness" (2009) was released on 9-9-09. Original, minimalist. . .Low-Fi!!!
