It's a family affair for local artist Noah Gundersen. Accompanied by his sister, brother, and friends, the soft-spoken singer/songwriter performed a dynamic, yet delicate Morning Show session featuring tracks from his then-unreleased debut full-length, Ledges. It comes as no surprise that Gundersen and his seven siblings grew up around music. He explained to DJ John Richards that his dad had a garage studio with a Tascam 8-track reel-to-reel that a 13-year-old Noah recorded his very first album on. Years later, we're thrilled to host the grown-up Gundersen in the KEXP studios.
