Multi-platinum alternative powerhouse grandson is stoked to announce his Down Under debut! grandson will bring his genre-smashing prowess to New Zealand for the first time this January where he will embark on the final leg of his massive, I Love You, I’m Trying world tour.
grandson melds genres, sculpting rock, hip-hop, and electronic into a vision of alternative you’ve never quite heard, seen, or felt before. Amassing a staggering 3.5 billion streams globally, the platinum-certified Canadian / American maverick flouts boundaries only to achieve stylistic unity with alacrity.
He infiltrated culture as a sonic insurgent with a pair of EPs - a modern tragedy Vol. 1-2 - and the 2x platinum single “Blood // Water”. In 2020, he continued to engage with his epically enigmatic full-length debut, Death of An Optimist. This year he turned the lens inward on his latest album, I Love You, I’m Trying, resulting in his most introspective and vulnerable collection of songs yet. His work has earned the applause of Rolling Stone, Variety, Billboard and many more as he continues to quietly reshape alternative.
grandson has spent a good chunk of 2023 taking the I Love You, I’m Trying tour across the Northern Hemisphere and it’s finally our turn to experience the alchemy and community when he hits our shores in early 2024.
And honestly, grandson can't wait either: “GRANNY DOWN UNDA. After too many long years and a gold record, we are finally bringing this rock and roll symphony to Australia and New Zealand for the final leg of the ILYIT world tour. Making movies, taking shoeys. It’s a dream come true for me, and we will bring everything we have with us to these shows. See you there.”
