Dean Book: Heavier Than A Really Heavy Thing

Tami Garcia

Dean Book’s guitar playing is heavy on rhythm and short on flash but that doesn’t make it any less impressive. As member of Hostility and now Gulch he creates guitar lines that are weighty, smart and rhythmically on the mark. You can hear him here—along with fellow Gulch guitarist Chris McNutt—on “The Second.”

The guitar in its many forms and styles is featured throughout June across our music programs. For more information about the shows and their features and to listen to KMUW music shows anytime online, visit our website at kmuw.org.
