J.W. Schuller

J.W. Schuller is a singer, guitar slinger and purveyor of quirky indie folk rock. He recently emigrated to Boulder from Minneapolis. After his last indie rock band broke up, he traded in his big, loud amp for a big acoustic guitar and started doing volunteer gigs at senior homes. He dove headlong into the great American songbook, which inspired a whole new batch of songs for his first solo record “All Important Artists” (2013). He released his second record, “No Mud in Joyville” in January 2018.

“…quirky indie rock you need to hear now. Even in the album’s darkest moments, Schuller delivers songs in a way that’s so charming, so funny, so in tune with the complexity of human emotion, you can’t help but smile. – Boulder Weekly

“J.W. Schuller’s clever all-acoustic pop wouldn’t be out of place in an addendum to Magnetic Fields’ 69 Love Songs.” – Nashville Scene

“Suddenly, we’re being told about Frank Lloyd Wright’s sex life over music that somehow resembles The Beatles or Neutral Milk Hotel. It’s a hoot. Over and over, the songs on “All Important Artists” surprise in small, yet important ways. It’s an excellent, playful, vibrant album full of thoughtful, humorous songwriting.” – Duluth News Tribune
