Gordie Chambers & The Seagulls is the folk-rock evolution of Gordie Chambers’ solo project. With the addition of bass, drums, keyboard, electric guitar, and horns, the music takes on a new energy — more electric, more expansive, yet still rooted in the poetry and melancholy that define Gordie’s songwriting. This full-band version brings to mind the emotional drive of Pinegrove, the melodic richness of Sufjan Stevens, and the joyful arrangements of Bahamas. On stage, Gordie & The Seagulls deliver warm and vibrant performances that celebrate friendship, doubt, and the beauty of not fitting in.

Their first EP A Normal Life (2025) ironically explores the idea of “normality” — questioning the clichés of adult life, rejecting the well-trodden path, and embracing a messier, more sincere existence. Somewhere between brightness and nostalgia, this is music for those who never quite felt at home in the mold.
