Gusterrhoids! Big announcement.

Just when you thought The Gusters were going to hibernate for the winter, BANG! Out from our caves we wander, crusty-eyed, hungry, ready to claw salmon to death.

It’s our first ever Acoustic Tour.

We’re playing stripped down acoustic sets with a small string section in intimate theaters on both coasts (and many places in-between). Expect deep set lists with b-sides, unique arrangements, and general unpredictability.

Jeff Garlin of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is on the bill for many of the shows performing stand-up comedy before us, perhaps singing songs with us, who knows.

To research the history of the relationship between Guster and Jeff

Garlin you’ll want to start with our joint podcast from 2006.

This is the first time we’ve attempted anything like this, with comedy, and cellos, and a seated audience. There might be a little Q&A. Get tickets early because the venues are small!
