My Politic

My Politic is an Americana/folk duo rooted in heartfelt storytelling and Midwestern authenticity. Originally formed in Missouri by childhood friends Kaston Guffey (vocals/guitar) and Nick Pankey (vocals/bass), they’ve carved out a niche with their warm, narrative-driven songs that often tackle themes of everyday struggles and societal observations. Their DIY spirit shines through releases like *Missouri Folklore: Songs & Stories from Home*, which pays homage to their roots, and *Short-Sighted People in Power*, a collection blending wry political commentary with cozy acoustic arrangements.

Relocating to Nashville added a touch of Southern grit to their sound, evident in recent singles like *Buzzards on a Powerline* and *Drifting Around the Ocean*. Known for their grassroots approach—they’ve self-recorded albums in bedrooms and toured tirelessly—My Politic’s music feels like a conversation with old friends. Whether through stripped-back ballads or foot-stomping folk-rock, they keep their focus on relatable stories and unpolished charm, making them a hidden gem in the modern Americana scene.
