Ethan Gruska- En Grade
Los Angeles-based songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Ethan Gruska presents his long-awaited second solo album, en Garde. en Garde is the follow up to his acclaimed 2017 solo debut SLOWMOTIONARY, which led The Los Angeles Times to proclaim Gruska as "L.A.'s next great songwriter". en Garde was recorded at Sound City Studios and co-produced by Tony Berg. Each of Gruska's compositions tell a vivid story surrounded by deceptively complex yet unrelentingly melodic musical structures. While conventional instruments include guitars, bass, keyboards, drums, occasional brass and strings, the studio itself becomes an instrument to be manipulated, chopped, channeled and utilized to recombine aural textures into almost unrecognizable sounds that manage to soothe as they ebb/flow and invite movement like all classic pop rock. [Note: This product is an authorized, licensed CD and is manufactured on demand]
Tracklist:
- Maybe I'll Go Nowhere
- Event Horizon
- On The Outside
- Enough For Now
- Dialing Drunk
- Crash Cart
- Another Animal
- Haiku4U
- Attacker
- Blood In Rain
- Nervous System
