Gavin Guss
a Man, a Band, a Website




Seattle is a warren of incestuous performers in ever-recombinant musical situations, and Gavin is no exception. From his bands, TubeTop and The Tycoons, to playing and creating with a vast assortment of that city's finest talent, Gavin has been working his melodic magic for some time.

After touring Europe and the U.S. as keyboardist with the band Nada Surf, Gavin is currently finishing production on his first solo record, Mercury Mine. Along with the talented Brian Young (Fountains of Wayne), Jon Auer (The Posies) and Phil Hurley (Gigolo Aunts), Gavin is crafting an album of smokey melodicism and cunning campfire waltzes.
