Extra Stars
OUT NOW
all music platforms
“Uhlmann’s most inquisitive and assured record yet, a 14-track playground where he uses every instrument at his disposal to pursue an obsession with curious sounds and the memories and emotions they can quickly conjure.” -Pitchfork
“The greatest disciple of Jeff Parker currently working…His tones and textures lend environments to the music; his improvisations live on within you after they’ve stopped vibrating.” -Paste
“Lead single ‘Lucia’ is chock full of interesting timbres, wonderful melodies, and enough charm to summon a leprechaun.” -Consequence
“It’s the kind of melancholic near-instrumental you might find buried deep on a Blur or Yo La Tengo album.” -Stereogum
“In the solo sphere, Uhlmann continues to push the boundaries of the guitar in a jazz setting.” -Raven Sings The Blues
“Creates the indelible impression of what it must be like to live in a bouncy castle, overlooking the Californian coast, all warm, wobbly and welcoming." -Line Noise
Today, Gregory Uhlmann — who is known for his work with SML, Perfume Genius, Hand Habits, and many more, and was featured in Paste Magazine's recent '75 Greatest Guitarists of the 21st Century' piece — releases Extra Stars, his debut solo album for International Anthem, on all streaming platforms (following it's March 6 release on LP, CD, and digital download).
