Noah Gundersen: Intimate Solo Performance of New Music

Seattle-rooted songwriter Noah Gundersen comes to The 27 Club in Ottawa on June 12, 2026 for an intimate solo set centered on new material. Blending folk, Americana and indie rock, he pares the songs down to voice, guitar and piano, opening a clear window on his writing. Unreleased pieces will share space with selections from Ledges, Carry the Ghost and White Noise through Lover, A Pillar of Salt and If This Is the End. In this setup, melodies breathe, lyrics sit up front, and the grain of his voice does the lifting.

Across his albums Gundersen has moved from stripped acoustic beginnings toward denser textures, yet the core stays steady: candid storytelling, doubt and desire, quiet tensions that slowly unfurl. Live and solo, he leans on dynamics, letting silence shape choruses and rough edges frame hooks. It’s a chance to catch fresh songs in their first shape and to hear older ones closer to the bone, in a format that puts the focus right where it matters.
