RICHARD GANS

Raised in the flatlands… Rambling from the North country to the South desert plains…howling at your local saloon. Richard Gans brings new life to the old folk tradition. With wailing harmonica, rhythmic guitar and mystifying lyrics… Richard’s soulful voice speaks to your depths and rattles your bones.

Richard Gans carries on the torch of the great prophets of the American Highway, transforming two lanes and open country into the mythic realm where the soul seeks all the salvation a rumbling engine can offer. Townes Van Zandt spent his later years singing Bruce Springsteen’s Racing in the Streets - Gans worships at the same altars with an honest voice that speaks to the hardships of life and gives voice to the patient faith that is required to make the long journey back to the place that you really wanted to go.

"Yuba" & "Two Wheels", the first singles from Richard's debut album, Before the Poppies Bloom, are now streaming on all major music platforms
