”One of my favorite things in the whole world is when I get a batch of film back from the lab. It allows me to relive so many moments from the road that I might have missed otherwise. Touring can be exhausting and a blur and it’s a good way to take stock of your experiences on the road. Here are a couple screen grabs taken from some super 8 Estée and I shot on our latest tour in British Columbia.” -Gus
”As you may well know, we will be embarking on a tour of the Gulf Islands in BC this summer. Here’s a picture of me with my dear friend Samwoy with whom I’ll be sharing the stage with. He just released an amazing new album, go give it a listen! Also, there’s been a venue change for the Vancouver date. We’re now playing at 555 Gore. See you in a couple of weeks!” – Gus
We are delighted to announce that Gus will be hitting the road this summer and for the first time in his native Pacific Northwest. Take a look at the poster below and find out if he’ll be playing in your city this summer. Tickets available here.
”I have just returned home from a short trip to Texas and California. SXSW was a wonderful and inspiring experience and we played our first show in Los Angeles. I must say it was one of my favorite shows I ever played and now I can hardly wait to play out west some more! Also I have somehow managed to write 10 new songs for a third album. So soon we’ll be recording hopefully, so stay tuned. That is all for this transmission from the road. Have a terrific day!” -Gus
Gus will be returning on the road this spring! See poster below to find out if he is going to come through a city near you and if he does make sure you get your tickets here.
A Cowboy in Paris is an autobiographical documentary film by Estée Preda and Gus Englehorn capturing life on the road while they were touring Europe during the fall of 2022. Shot on super 8 film in a laconic cinema vérité style, the documentary strings together a series of live performances punctuated by mundane moments captured on the road. The melancholic, slow and meandering pace tries to approximate real time for the audience.
Here’s some archival footage from 2019 while Gus and Estée were making their very first music video for the song Transform with their friend Matt Charland.
