The new single is so close to being done...

So, we put the finishing backing vocals on the EP tonight. Jay is going to mix it this week, so I am legitimately thinking that "I Love You, Christina Hendricks" will be out sometime in July.

 Yes, of this year, ya smartass!

More news to follow in the coming days.

Jay and Sarah monitor the recording of backing vocals

Pssst! You need an amp?

Hey everyone! Are you a musician or know someone who is? Would you or they like to purchase a fine amplifier? It is a Marshall JCM900 100Watt head along with a 4x12 cabinet. Serious offers please. It's ridiculously loud, and sounds awesome. The head has been painted silver and the cabinet has been covered in faux snakeskin. If you ever saw my band Grover Kent, you've seen it.

I am asking 800 but I am entertaining all other serious offers.

Just so you know...

lead vocals are done and have been for a while.  After backing vocals and mixing this thing should be ready.  Hopefully soon :)

More news! Good and bad!

First the bad: Well I am in the hospital with cellulitus.  It's a nasty infection, and it makes my leg look like a Renfaire turkey leg (ladies...how YOU doin?).  I should be going home tomorrow, so that's a good thing.

Good News- Guitatrs have been recorded for the new single.  That means El Gordo (me!) has to get a move on and record the damned thing...


Soon my pretties, soon!

AVAILABLE NOW, uh, again!

As many of you have surely noticed Grover Kent's catalog has been off of der Interwebz now for some time ever since our digital label Are you Listening Records went cans-up.  Also, since we move like a sloth on ludes, we only just got around to making it available again!

Presenting the official GROVER KENT BANDCAMP PAGE!

Right now you can only get our 2006 (holy crap it's six years old already!) EP Running Out of Ramones but it's got BONUS TRACKS! I know what you're thinking "Rich, what about those of us who buy CDs? Where's our Bonus tracks?" Well, if you bought the Grover Kent odds and sods collection (Everything Must Go!), they are originally from there, so you're already covered.

So there you have it.  If you don't already own the thing, and you're some weirdo who simply can't stomach the idea of CDs anymore, here's your chance to buy it.

More news to come.

RIP Court Tavern

This one hurts, more than a little.  The Court was a great venue to see bands and a great place to play. 

Sad to see it go...

yes, that's us playing there.

Happy New Year!

I don't know what the year 2012 holds for Grover Kent, but I hope it contains shows and some recordings. Hope your holidays were awesome, and let's all try and make 2012 the best one yet!

I can tell you that there will be a deluxe version of our Out of Print debut album available before the summer. The digital version of Running Out of Ramones will be out quite soon. technically speaking, since the damn thing was CD only, the digital version was always available because it was a damned Compact Disc to begin with!

nice, 12 hours into the new year and I'm already complaining!
