Desmond Grundy
Words and Music: Lead singer and songwriter, Desmond
Grundy, has an accessible creative signature. His
studied musical influences end where his stab at
artistic genius begins—somewhere between 1977 and
this moment of now.
Hooky, indie, guitar music seeded in the structured
4/4 song styles of the British Rock and R&B
invasions. These tunes about traveling, justice and
ineffable love on a planetary scale weave
flashbacks, lyrical déja-vu and blank reality into
waves of wall-battering chord patterns, leads and
harmonies. This refreshingly original work has
carved its own niche with influences from
songwriting giants like Iggy, Dylan, the Velvets and
the Kinks.
Influences: All
of the artists at the "Rolling Thunder Review" show:
December 1st and 2nd, 1975: Maple Leaf Gardens -
Toronto, Canada and more locally, Teanage Head, The
Forgotten Rebels, The Ugly, Daniel Lanois, Gordon
Lightfoot, Michel Pagliaro...
Album: One Lane Bridge
(2017)
Mixed and mastered at Grant Avenue Studio, Hamilton.
Special thanks to Paula Humfrey, Bob Doidge, Graham
Shaw / Shaw Percussion, my father Sam, and the PTW.
This collection of songs came together over five
years commencing December 2012. I owe extra thanks
to the songwriters who wrote the music that I am
privileged to recreate here. When the Quakers cut
down all the trees for planting they never realized
the soil would all blow away. So they had to replant
the trees. It is an honour to replant these songs.
In respect of my own material, I had a chance to
work with great people that brought light to sound I
may not have heard. This album is an independent
work conceived and developed in a crucible of
awakening.
