Great Grandpa is a band full of surprises. They’re an indie rock group from Seattle, with a Berklee grad guitarist/producer in their midst, yet you’ll hear no ironed-out shred or impenetrable prog riffs. Their songs are full of lush left-turns, sliding transitions and melodic complexity, but their chief songwriter has had no formal training.
Even their return is a surprise: dropping their first album in six years – Patience, Moonbeam, the follow-up to 2019’s stellar Four of Arrows – after a period in which the band appeared to be on the rocks.
