Unfortunately Artisan Grace is now a relic and a thing of the past. The band consisted of Brian Farnsworth (Lead vocal, rhythm guitar), Cody Swanson (Lead guitar, backup vocal), Colin (Bass), and Matt Gohring (Drums). If you are interested in seeing what we are up to now check out Cody playing with Fresh Jefferson, and check out Brian's solo project called Me Minus You, now based out of Chicago.

Artisan Grace was a lot of fun and we would like to thank each and every person who ever supported us. Your friends,
Brian and Cody
If you want to get a hold of us for any reason, including trying to convince us to throw a reunion show....please contact Brian @ brian.farnsworth@yahoo.com
Hey guys! I heard about the break up and needless to say I was pretty damn speachless. You guys were all fucking amazing as a group but I'm sure you'll do great as well on your own. I wish I could have seen more of your shows though... I hope to see all of you on stage again at some point even if its not the four of you together! I wish you all the best of luck!
BOOOOOOO!!!
Artisan Grace reunion tour??
Sad news to hear lads but hopefully it will be for the better?? Hit me up soon and we shall drink a cold one...ahhhh yes.
Hi boys!! You all rocked last week at your HEADLINING show!! Awsome! Anywho.. Brian... if you want those pics, get ahold of Megan, she's got them. Hope to see you all soon! Late
You are too kind, my friend. We can't thank you enough for thinking of us and including us on the bill. Now lets get AEG to pay us back BIG TIME for the grand-scale ball-drop on the 16/21 thing.
We all have an amazing amount of respect for AG and the way you guys handle yourselves...class, class, class...enough said.
Tell me about it I haven't even been back up to evergreen in quite sometime now. I guess I'm due for a visit and the band sounds good. Maybe I'll get to hear you guys play sometime.
Hey guys...I'm so sorry I couldn't make it to your show tonight!! I really wanted to, but I recently got a new pup and she's just adjusting and I can't leave her yet. I am sure you guys rocked it though and I will def be at the next one! xo
Hey!~
Yeah we are trying to put together a Hubbas benefit concert for next week...I've got a few local bands looking for places that will work with us on cost and what not to rent out the place. Once I get some more news I'll let you guys know and see if you can play. In the meantime if you know other local bands give them the notice about Hubbas because the more people we have involved (in any way) the better chances we have to get the place re opened!
I'm freakin EXCITED for the Conifair! You guys and the Railbenders: Great Combo!!!!! Can't wait to see y'all play!
Thanks for responding about Hubbas, its important that the bars that allow original bands to play whenever, don't go under! Have a good one you guys!!!~Jessica
