GUNSLINGER

Not quite what you expected

About Me

We are two guys playing music meant to be played by many. Our attempts are to create engaging music that takes you up and down, and is intense and free. This is us at the very begining of our adventures as Gunslinger so enjoy us in our infancy before we take over the world.Brian Looney-- with a deep interest in quantum physics, Brian draws inspiration from the structure of things on small levels and the overall picture. His compositions are reflective of his interest in understanding the universe and love of the Mars Volta. With changing time signatures and odd rhythms, the details are as interesting as the songs in their entirety.Miles Cramer-- Miles is one of the toughest flowery sensitive hippies you will meet. To Miles, drums are more than just beating the shit out of things, it is the movement of sound by the entire body. With his interest in meditation and philosophy, his approach to the drums is inspired by his own attempts at "modern social enlightenment". His powerful drumming is grounded in his deep love for Sum 41.
