I just played the music of Autechre on an acoustic guitar inside this cathedral in Portugal. It felt sacred.
Messed around with this Elliott Smith song this Independence Day morning. I didn’t play it long enough to do it proper justice. But I’m in Portland, and it’s July 4th. What a beauty… he was a genius.
also very honored to see the letterpress poster of the score, framed and hanging in their office! 🙏 ❤️🎶
I stopped by the offices of The Fretboard Journal in Seattle, the finest guitar magazine in all the land! I picked up issue 59, with Jeff Tweedy on the cover and my transcription of “Bike” from Autechre Guitar inside. The first TABs they’ve ever published in their 20 year history! 🤯
I have a couple shows next week in the PNW. No AI was used in the making of this flyer.
This blew my mind. Fats Waller and Duke Ellington learning pieces of music by slowing down piano rolls on player pianos and placing their fingers in the pressed keys… reminds me of slowing down side-scrolling guitar tabs on YouTube. There is no such thing as cheating.
I’m playing two shows in Los Angeles on Sunday: 11:30 am brunch concert at the Skirball Center, where I will play music from across my ouvre 8pm performance of Autechre Guitar at 2220 Arts + Archive with Laura Shumate. 📸: Bob Burnett

I’m playing Washington DC this Friday with Marisa Anderson at Rhizome! 7th Stanine Festival. Can’t wait to say hey to the DC scene! I love Rhizome and Marisa is the best. Come on out if you’re nearby.

I’m so excited to play ‘Autechre Guitar’ in Denver at Ghost Canyon fest, August 28-30, with this beautiful monster lineup! 🔥 @ghostcanyonfest.bsky.social Tix: ghostcanyonfest.com
I made this country blues arrangement of the Sonny Rollins song “Blue 7” a few years back. Thought I would share as many of us are celebrating his life and music and legacy.
RIP Sonny Rollins. I’m so grateful for his music and his wisdom. What a profoundly positive force. I’ve learned so much from listening to his music, reading his words, watching interviews, his dedication, his journey to always improve as a human being. Man! Thank you Sonny!
Super excited to perform Autechre Guitar as part of the Making Time ∞ 2026 lineup! Philly, Sept 18-20th.
Played “Video Games” by Lana Del Rey, accompanied by the sound of clinking of glasses, during my second set at the Blue Tavern in Tallahassee the other night. Some of my favorite recordings have clinking glasses. First time playing this one out!🥂
Now available! Limited edition of 100. An 11x17 letterpress print of my hand-drawn score of the song “Bike" from my 2026 album, Autechre Guitar, on Palilalia Records. shaneparish.bandcamp.com/merch/autech...
