Personal Notes: I've never actually seen a live GRiZ show, but I have seen him come out and play with Gramatik and Big Gigantic in the past. It'll be a fun funky show with some good vibes, and I know most people here aren't really into this kind of music, but if you are I would highly recommend checking him out. Interesting Facts: He seems to be blowing up over the past year or so. Last summer he played Red Rocks and sold it out, which was a surprise. Earlier this month he sold out 3 separate shows in Colorado in seconds. I expect he'll play one of those dangerously overcrowded tent sets at Bonnaroo.

nice write up, i agree it will be one of those dangerously overcrowded tent situations, and therefore a show I probably won't catch even though I'd like to. Would be cool to see him in a Which pre-HL slot (a la Zedd a couple years back) but I think we already have enough Which pre-HL level artists.

Honestly didn't think anyone was going to read that so I really appreciate it!
He's playing buku. One of my girls loves him. If I can't get my sell my buku tickets at what I paid, might have to check him out. Barring conflicts and shit.
