Grinstead is progressive rock. Grinstead is metal. Grinstead is punk. Call it what you will, but in the end, we're just four music nerds that like to have a good time.
Over a year ago you might have known us as For the Morning. Since then, we've developed a new face, a new motivation, and a new name. Every member of Grinstead brings something different to the table: Jimmy's knowledge in music theory, experimental guitar work, and emotion-filled vocals have proven to be invaluable. Alex belts out shred laden, aggressive, and even insightful guitar melodies, largely driven by his punk and metal roots. Snappy, catchy basslines are provided by Nick, whose background in pop-punk and straight-up rock gives every song a unique twist. Finally, Tom the Viking unleashes his fury on the drum kit, mixing brute-force drumming with driving beats and a bad temper.
Whether you like shreddy metal, bouncy punk, or melodic, thoughtful rock, Grinstead probably has something for you. We've found that the concept of the 'genre' is too confining, and that it's far easier to let the music speak for itself. So sit back and enjoy, or come thrash with us at our next show. Either way, we hope you have as much fun listening as we do playing.
