Grandpaboy

• Genre: Indie/Alternative

About

What initially started out as a between-labels project for former Replacements' frontman Paul Westerberg has morphed into a viable entity for the singer, who is the active principal in Grandpaboy. With a sound that evokes shades of the 'Mats in their heyday, Grandpaboy rock in a bluesy, you-can't-get-any-looser-than-this kind of way. Coupled with Westerberg's wry, often barbed lyrics, Grandpaboy deliver a wickedly enticing combination that's sure to please old fans while extending a hand to new ones.
