Timeless World Forever

Graham Hunt has an intuitive ability to carve out his own space within the long, confusing history of American pop music. The Wisconsin-based songwriter has spent the past four years hard at work building records that synthesize timeless guitar pop chops with a layered approach to production and a sly lyrical eye. His music balances the surreal with the quotidian, the melodic with the rhythmic, the cryptic with the triumphant-often proving that slacker playfulness and Heartland earnestness are not mutually exclusive. 'Timeless World Forever' - Hunt's first release for Run for Cover - provides closure on a formidable body of songs while opening the gates for a new stage in the artist's long, prolific career. For years, Hunt has been a staple of the Midwest indie rock world, dating back to his time leading Midnight Reruns and performing with acts like Mike Krol and Disq. In 2019 he released his first solo record, 'Leaving Silver City', but it was 2022's 'If You Knew Would You Believe It?' where he hit his stride. The album was quickly followed by 'Try Not to Laugh' in 2023, and now 'Timeless World Forever' picks up those threads. The three records are of a piece: all made in the same Madison basement with a beat-driven density and sonic imagination that is as indebted to rap and rave as power pop.
