Guy Forsyth grew up in KC but has been a denizen of Austin, TX for the past couple of decades. He's a true renaissance man musically, and is very difficult to pigeon-hole. He was a co-founder of the Asylum Street Spankers, has released adrenaline-fueled rock `n' roll records, and is probably best classified as a singer-songwriter with very deep rootsy/bluesy musical roots. Guy's music is eclectic - in the best sense of the word. He's also a multi-instrumentalist, being a fantastic slide guitar and harmonica player, and also playing guitar, baritone guitar, ukulele, and saw (yes, musical saw.) There are messages in the lyrics of most of Guy's songs, or if not outright messages, then deeper meanings of life as he sees it playing out around him.
