Acoustic Guitar Breaks Down Simple Syrup

Acoustic Guitar Magazine has a breakdown of Simple Syrup, the new record from Sunny War, that will be of interest to any guitar geek who has heard her music. “Big Baby is actually War’s nickname for her workhorse guitar, a 1989 Guild True American dreadnought that she’s played since her days busking on the boardwalk at Southern California’s Venice Beach. In ‘Big Baby,’ as in many of her songs, she treats the guitar more like a duet partner than a backup instrument, fingerpicking the melody along with her breathy voice and adding bluesy fills reminiscent of Malian guitar masters such as Ali Farka Toure.” Read more here and play Sunny War all the time.
