Gunnar Olsen - Puscifer
Gunnar Olsen is an in demand studio drummer in New York, having worked with greats such as Bruce Springsteen, John Legend, and most recently, Puscifer – which is what brings us together today.
Puscifer is a side project started by Maynard James Keenan, of TOOL fame. Gunnar appears on two studio tracks and the entire live performance of their latest album, “Existential Reckoning – LIVE at Arcosanti”.
"Everybody deserves to feel the way I feel. I’ve been really fortunate to do some cool things recently… All of us have so much potential. Creative people - if we can just get past this ‘how are we going to pay the rent for the next 6 months?’, which is always hard as an artist, but feels really hard right now…. I think good things are ahead of all of us. It’s just going to take a little bit.”
Check out their latest release, Existential Reckoning, available on all streaming services – or – visit the Puscifer store to purchase physical & collectible copies:

Update - Tour Photos!:
18 Months following my interview with Gunnar, the social landscape has changed dramatically. Life is largely back to normal, and Puscifer is on tour. I caught up with the band at their Denver show at the Mission Ballroom on 6 July, 2022. Here are some photos from their performance.
Note: At the time of this publication, Puscifer has announced dates for a series of Fall 2022 shows. You will love the show!
