David Grubbs has had an astonishingly wide-ranging career, collaborating with various artists and bands such as Squirrel Bait, Bastro, Bitch Magnet (fleetingly), the Red Krayola, Gastr del Sol, Palace, Boxhead Ensemble, and pursuing a series of solo recordings. His commitment to growth as both instrumentalist and composer is evident in his constant pursuit of challenging forms and structures that captivate both musician and listener.

With a diverse range of influences and collaborations throughout his career, David Grubbs has carved out a unique musical path. His work can be likened to similar artists such as Brokeback, Sam Prekop, Papa M, Gastr Del Sol, Isotope 217, Tortoise, The For Carnation, Boxhead Ensemble, Pullman,and Ui.

As an instrumentalist and composer extraordinaire, David Grubbs continues to captivate audiences with his innovative approach to music-making. Whether performing with renowned bands or venturing into solo projects, Grubbs' unwavering commitment to artistic growth shines through in every note he plays.

'Prismrose' is a nearly wordless collection of six pieces for electric guitar, all given real time to breathe, grow unpredictably, mutate. It's an album - an of-a-piece, startto- finish listen - that documents what an electric guitar sounds like in David Grubbs' hands in the year 2016. 'Prismrose' comes to us from a stellar run of expansive, hands-thinking hands-puzzling guitar music that began with the stylistic pivot of Grubbs's solo records 'An Optimist Notes The Dusk' and 'The Plain Where The Palace Stood' and the two recent albums from the trio Belfi / Grubbs / Pilia.
