Andrew Gower was interviewed by online magazine Uncover Liverpool about Gustaffson and their music.
UL: How would you best describe your music?
AG: I’d say our music is a blend of Rock, Folk and more recently Soul/Funk (a sign of things too come), but the foundation of all of our music is definitely in the story telling. With every song we think about our audience. What story do we want to tell them, lyrically and musically. How do we want to present it and serve it up without spoon feeding them. The best stories don’t have to be explained. Which I guess is what makes them universal.
UL: What’s your process for writing and creating music?
AG: Our process of writing music is forever changing. I think at its heart is collaboration. I’ve been writing lyrics since I was 15 and each story or song is always brought to life by the collaboration process. They are like little stories or scripts I carry around with me. They can be inspired by an instrument, a riff, a producer or even a piece of artwork. I’ve watched a lot of films of late and gone in the studio the next day with a clear idea for a song. That’s what I love about writing music – there’s no right or wrong way to do it.
Andrew Gower joined 360 Yourself host Jamie Neale to talk all things Gustaffson as well as discussing rituals and habitual patterns in personal and work life. “We ask questions about how to become more aware of one self and the world around us, how do we become 360 with ourselves?”

Andrew also talks about the beginning of his career and what he loves about acting.
Carnival Row‘s Spurnrose siblings Tamzin Merchant (Imogen) and Andrew Gower (Ezra) spoke to Starry Mag‘s editor Jamie Steinberg about their roles in Season 2 of the neo-noir fantasy drama.
Tamzin Merchant and Andrew Gower have previously worked on independent feature film Running Naked and (so far unreleased) short film Ark. Tamzin Merchant also served as an assistant producer for Gustaffson‘s video “The Jacaranda“.
Watch the interview below:
Andrew Gower spoke to Erin Tatum from Cliché Mag about Carnival Row (Prime Video) and YOU (Netflix) – whose new seasons have recently been released and both feature Andrew Gower – as well as his band Gustaffson and what the future holds for them.
Season two for Ezra is all about his search for his own truth and family justice. Without his sister in the Burgue, he has a purposeless existence and he’ll do anything to get her back. His unrealistic Victorian etiquette standards are tested more than ever. He has enormous fears of becoming the thing he hates most.
Andrew Gower about his character’s journey in Season 2 of Carnival Row
The dark psychology of this series is definitely what draws the audience in. It’s a very trendy genre right now! My character – Detective Peter Andrew – is on the hunt for a London serial killer throughout this new series. So I was keen to play against the psychology of Joe (Penn Badgley).
Andrew Gower on YOU
The next step for us as an unsigned band would be to make our first album. We’ve written so many new songs and have some incredible people to collaborate with so it’s all about finding a home for GUSTAFFSON to do that. In the meantime, we are recording a selection of live videos for some of our new tracks. We’re collaborating with some amazing music producers and film directors. It’s an exciting way to combine both my filming and music passions. There’s nothing better than being back in the studio with the band. It has very quickly become my happy place!
