| Also known as |
- Greg Saunier
Greg Saunier is a rock drummer and one of the two founding members of the bay area experimental group Deerhoof. He has also played in Nitre Pit. In 2002 he became a member of Nervous Cop which had him playing along the sides of Zach Hill (of Hella) and Joanna Newsom.
Other bands Saunier has performed with include The Curtains and THETEETHE.
Originally from Maryland, he moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and studied music at Mills College. He also attended the Oberlin College Conservatory of Music. He is married to Deerhoof vocalist/bassist Satomi Matsuzaki.
He collaborated on Xiu Xiu's first album Knife Play and produced their fifth album The Air Force.
His drumming style is spastic and improvisational while retaining a (mostly) steady rhythm. He uses the minimal setup of a bass drum, snare, and two cymbals when playing live with Deerhoof. His singing style most notably on "The Runners Four" is soft and sweet as we hear him on such tracks as "After Me the Deluge."
