About grislier
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
My brother bought me KISS' first record before I knew not to eat it, and gave it to me once I did.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
FEAR, The Fear Record
Frank Zappa, Over-Nite Sensation
Mr. Bungle, Mr. Bungle
Zappa opened my mind to amazing new ways to hear music, FEAR retrained my brain toward punk rock and Mr. Bungle concocted the perfect mix of the two (and 900 other genres). The adolescent lyrics of all 3 attracted young me enough to notice each.

“Blame Falls”
This song took me 35 years to write... sorta. The title was part of something I wrote in high school, the lyrics were sculpted throughout my 20s and 30s. At 50, I dusted them off and wrote the music.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far?
I used to play with a noiserock/comedy band called The Moths. One show we borrowed the previous bands' equipment (assuring them that we wouldn't play them) and pantomimed to our records playing over the P.A. We called it the Milli Vanilli show.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band?
I'd really love to play CBGB's... oh, damn. Too late.
