Two years after his If This Isn’t Nice Tour following the release of his debut album, If  This Isn’t Nice, I Don’t Know What Is, Californian singer-songwriter Sven Gamsky, known as Still Woozy, is back on tour to perform his second studio album, Loveseat. 

Still Woozy is by far one of the greatest names of late 2010’s bedroom indie, guiding an entire generation’s venture into the wonders to be found outside mainstream music. His magnum opus, 2017 single “Goodie Bag”, has hundreds of millions of streams on Spotify, and even if you don’t know him it’s almost guaranteed it’ll be love at first listen. Still Woozy’s soft, psychedelic instrumentals and relaxed voice have an easy pull for new fans, and it definitely doesn’t hurt that he’s allergic to releasing bad music. 

Still Woozy’s sophomore album follows the patterns of his previous work but takes a matured shape. The artwork is of course done by his wife, Amiya Kahn-Tietz, also the source of inspiration for much of Sven’s discography.  Loveseat sees Sven singing about fatherhood, his love for Amiya, and all the nuances of life in between.  

His infectious smile and exuberant stage presence are always a pleasure live – this isn’t a show you want to miss! Joined by New York pop group Michelle and in a venue as grand as the Anthem, this Saturday is sure to be a blast.
