Progressive Folk Rock from New Zealand

Kia ora fellow TBers,

My band Grumblewood has just released a song from our upcoming debut album. It's one of our more mellow numbers (with a louder proggier bit in the middle) and gave me a chance to get really melodic with my bass line.

I play my Ibanez AGB205 semihollow throughout the album, strung with La Bella Copper Tapes. It's visible a few times in the video. We recorded, mixed, and mastered the entire album with vintage analogue equipment for an early 70s sound. A bunch of that is visible in the video too. Was an arduous process but we're really happy with how it all came out.

Love to know what you all think.



Album is out November 6th.
