Steve Geuting Interview
Gruvis Malt were a band that combined a multitude of genres ranging from Jazz, Reggae, Funk, Hip Hop, experimental and progressive rock. If you're unfamiliar with the band I'd highly recommend checking any of their albums. Which are some of my favourite releases to date.
I previously had the chance to interview Gavin Castelton who played keys for them. Here's my interview with the Steve Geuting who played guitar in the band.
How long have you been playing music for and what inspired you to become a musician? What inspires you now?
I started playing guitar when I was about 15 or 16 years old. I seriously started playing a year later, and I probably played seriously for a good 23 or 24 years after that. These days I don’t play as much due to a career/life shift and cooking for a living.
What are your earliest musical memories?
Probably hearing the musical cast recordings for Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables. Both my parents were and are still involved in community theatre. My Mom was a singer/dancer/actress in musicals and my Dad is a carpenter and built and designed sets. So there were always musicals playing on the stereo in my house.

For reasons I do not understand, they have asked for all the papers to be submitted in advance, and say they will give them out to whoever comes to hear the talks. To my mind, this makes the conference itself superfluous &#; why sit through a bunch of talks, when you can read them much more easily and quickly? But whatever. In any case, here is my talk on &#;The Aesthetics of Workflow.&#; My initial plan was much more ambitious &#; in addition to speaking about Anthony Mandler&#;s video for Rihanna&#;s &#;Disturbia&#;, I was also going to discuss two other music videos: Grant Singer&#;s video for Sky Ferreira&#;s &#;Night Time, My Time&#;, and Tom Beard and FKA twigs&#; video for FKA twigs&#; &#;Papi Pacify&#;. Part of the idea was to discuss videos for women singers at three levels of the music industry: superstar (Rihanna), emerging (& so far) midlevel artist (Sky Ferreira), and little-known independent (FKA twigs). All three videos are poweful and challenging, but I think that the different economic scales makes for different modes of expression as well. However, this was not to be. So far I haven&#;t had enough time to write about these other two videos. And even if I had, I would end up with a talk that w THIS SITE HAS BEEN ARCHIVED AND CLOSED.
