A Guess At the Riddle

It's the damn-straightest release of David Grubbs' solo career, as noted by the artist himself. Got a chubby? Get your fix with this Grubbsy...

Ex-Gastr del Sol member eases further into the deep-end of his pristine poppiness, again working with The Ice Storm author Rick Moody, as well as Matmos, Mice Parade's Adam Pierce, Calexico collaborator Thomas Belhom, Bar/None vocalist Hannah Marcus, and others.

On A Guess at the Riddle, David Grubbs reunites with his Rickets & Scurvy collaborator Rick Moody, and once again, folk and folk-rock form the backbone of the pair's elliptically literate songs.
