If you were lucky you may have seen John Grant last year at the Kilkenny Rhythm & Roots Festival and Electric Picnic.
The good news is John Grant will be bringing his electric heartbreak and smooth baritone back to Stradbally on the 31st of August for this years Electric Picnic.
Sinead O'Connor
Grant lives in Reykjavík, Iceland, where he worked throughout 2012 on his second solo album "Pale Green Ghosts" with Biggi Veira from Gus Gus and Sinead O'Connor on guest vocals. After release in March this year "Pale Green Ghosts" has been rapturously received.
John also contributed "Saddle the Wind" to the recent Lone Ranger soundtrack.
Ghostly Electronica
“Pale Green Ghosts” blends a dark, sparkling and ghostly electronica with the smooth heartbreak of soft rock balladry across a gritty, personal backstory.
Painfully honest, angry and confessional yet peppered with a sardonic dry wit Grant illuminates the disintegration of a relationship turned deathly sour in bitter-sweet atmospherics and sombre detail.
