Stream Steve Gunn Stonehurst Cowboy
Stream Steve Gunn Stonehurst Cowboy, Back in October, Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Steve Gunn announced his upcoming fourth record The Unseen In Between and debuted its space-folk lead single “New Moon.”
And today, he’s sharing its second offering, “Stonehurst Cowboy,” accompanied by a live acoustic video filmed in London’s Leake Street Graffiti Tunnel.
The song is a tribute to Gunn’s father, who passed away a few weeks after the release of his 2016 Matador debut Eyes On The Lines. Written from his father’s perspective, it’s a sweet, solemn tune steeped in history and haunted by the Vietnam War.
“Back then friends, brothers, and me all got sent away/ Came back feeling so undone without much to say/ Sat for hours stared at flowers, found ways to hide the pain,” Gunn sings.
The acoustic version is a warm amble, just Gunn and his guitar wrapped up in memories. Watch and listen to “Stonehurst Cowboy” below and check out the live acoustic video while you’re at it.
