Guided by Voices (GBV) is an American indie rock band founded in Dayton, Ohio, in 1983. Its personnel has changed frequently, although the presence of major songwriter Robert Pollard has remained constant. Pollard (lead vocals), his brother Jim (guitar, bass), Mitch Mitchell (lead guitars), Tobin Sprout (vocals, rhythm guitars), Kevin Fennell (drums), and bassist Greg Demos were the band’s most well-known configuration. The band’s influences include early post-British Invasion garage rock, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, punk rock, and post-punk, and was initially noted for its lo-fi aesthetic and Portastudio four-tracks-to-cassette production methods. The band has a prolific output, having released 35 full-length albums and numerous other releases.
