Greg Saunier

Rolling Stone included Saunier alongside Brian Chippendale (of Lightning Bolt) and Zach Hill (of Hella, later Death Grips and the I.L.Y's) as together composing "a generation of trailblazing 21st-century avant-rock percussionists".

[12] Outside of Deerhoof, Saunier's bands include Mystical Weapons (a duo with Sean Lennon)[13][14] and a collaboration with Brian Chippendale, about which a documentary, Checking in at 20, was produced.

[15][16][17] He also formed Nervous Cop with drummer Zach Hill and harpist Joanna Newsom,[18] and bands with members of Erase Errata and Rainer Maria, soundtracked a film by Martha Colburn, and collaborated with Yonatan Gat on a reinterpretation of Antonín Dvořák's American Quartet.

[19][20][21] Saunier is a member of the indie rock supergroup Big Walnuts Yonder alongside bassist Mike Watt (Minutemen, fIREHOSE), guitarist Nels Cline (Wilco) and guitarist/vocalist Nick Reinhart (Tera Melos).

[31] In 2016, Saunier collaborated with American Brazilian composer Marcos Balter, in which they wrote songs for Deerhoof and Ensemble Dal Niente.
