We gotta postpone the end of the beginning tour. While this is all incredibly frustrating and disappointing, as we were preparing to come off hiatus with a brand new set full of new music, I understand that the recommendation of the world’s preeminent health experts is to avoid large public gatherings where the COVID-19 virus might incubate and spread. The choice between whether to come and offer you a break from all this madness despite the risk, a cathartic space for anger and love and community, or to cancel the shows for the safety of the grandkids and of our incredible tour family, was a tough decision. Ultimately that decision was made with the best advice we could get, and in constant communication with promoters, booking agents and local community organizers, and it was the right decision. We get it, it sucks, but we are already looking forward to the opportunity to jump around together when the sun comes back out. Wash your hands and expect lots of new music to be made now that I have too much time to sit around my apartment. Take care of yourselves, and don’t hoard resources that would be better off going to more vulnerable at risk neighbors or medical professionals.
Love grandson

General Admission
grandson is an alternative artist hailing from Toronto, Canada. Born in the small town of Englewood New Jersey, he relocated to the cultural melting pot of Toronto at a young age and grew up surrounded by music ranging from jazz and rock & roll to rap, dancehall and R&B. Searching for his voice and for meaning in today’s divisive, chaotic world, grandson confronts the most pressing issues of his generation through his songwriting, such as financial inequality, governmental, environmental accountability and social justice, giving these topics a soundtrack with a genuine sense of urgency and frustration. His music also touches on adolescence, relationships and the insecurities and difficulties of growing up through your 20s. When asked about today’s music scene, he says: “I genuinely believe the world needs honest rock & roll, now more than ever”.
