Artisan Guns


From the start, Artisan Guns were one of those talented acts where each member seemed destined for great things. 'Autumn', a song from their first EP, was a nominee for a Silver Scroll Award but their progress was slowed by their obsessive approach to recording their 2012 debut album, Coral.

Matthew Hope began writing his first songs in the mould of Gram Parsons and Townes Van Zandt while still at high school and enlisted his friend Reuben Stephens to form a band.
