Tobin Sprout

The story

Tobin Sprout is an American visual artist, musician, songwriter, and children's author. He is most notable as a former member of the indie rock band Guided by Voices. He served as a secondary major songwriter and guitarist of the group from 1987 to 1997 and again from 2010 to 2014. Pitchfork has referred to him as "the AC/DC of lo-fi rock" for his "dogged insistence on sticking to his original strategy" in creating music, ie. "that production values basically don't matter".
