About El Grande

MyGen Profile Generator

El Grande is a groove-rock supergroup from Portland, Maine. Their unique sound has been accredited to their diverse musical inspirations ranging from 311 and the Police to Bob Marley and Miles Davis. Their grooves vary between laid back reggae to upbeat ska and punk. El Grande's rhythm section consists of frontman Chris Gironda on guitar and vocals, Tom Bailey on drums and Shane Fenton on bass.

Rounding out the lineup is El Grande's mighty horn section, featuring Mike Ouellet and Keith Orlando.

The Grandes have played with such greats as The Toasters, Streetlight Manifesto, The Voodoo Glow Skulls, Big D and the Kid's Table, The Pietasters, and Westbound Train.

Their live shows prove to be the remedy for bum-outs.
