Robert Pollard
Indie Rock / Alternative
Guided By Voices, one of the most widely admired and influential rock groups of the 90's and beyond were famous for writing an astounding quantity of really great rock songs, in a dizzying variety of styles and arrangements, and recording them on whatever equipment was at hand, whether boombox or four-track or professional recording studio. They were also famous for the revolving-door line-up whose only constant was singer/songwriter Robert Pollard, whose output moreover overflowed, on a seemingly endless series of side projects, solo records, and bizarre collaborations with ex-members of the band, current members of the band, and random passersby.
