~"Think about everything you like about the past two decades of acoustic ear-catching pop- Toad the Wet Sprocket meets Natalie Merchant with an indescribable edginess thrown in and you begin to imagine Grovers appeal." ~ Rob Williams Media Spring 2006
~"Band members Tara Orion and James Kinne wrote all of the songs on Remain, and they try their hand at a few different styles. World-beat, folk, New Age and guitar rock are all represented...In a record that attempts to tie so many disparate styles together, Orion's vocals are the strongest unifying element. Her voice, confident and relaxed, is a big asset to this band. Remain boasts some solid musicianship, so it might be worthwhile to check them out live. "~ Seven Days Burlington, VT 04/05/06
~"Nothing About Grover's strengths lie in it's solid groove with a rhythm section that understands how to support Kinne and Orion's acoustic pop guitar-driven songs and sweet vocal harmonies."~

James Kinne and Tara Orion had an undeniable chemistry from the first time they met. Amidst a sea of artists in central Connecticut, they collaborated on-stage that very first evening. Their writing easily bridged individual solo material to songs that were strengthened by their combined input.
Looking for inspiration, James introduced Tara to the Green Mountains of Vermont. The beauty and day-to-day pace in the mountains reflected James' fond memories of his childhood days when he would visit with his family. James and Tara turned to the wilderness for clarity and inspiration, and converted a mountainside ski lodge into a comfy home and professional recording and production studio named Stillwater. They wrote songs and recorded tracks that celebrated the fullness they felt in their new surroundings, and began a search for the right people to round out and add the finishing touches to their live project.
For a year they played as a 4 piece band including: Jake Blodgett on drums and percussion, and Jim Bowen on bass. Feeling like it was not the right direction for the music, they split up soon thereafter to continue to explore new sounds and musical terrains. Tara and James are still writing and putting together new music, and performing as a duo under the Nothing About Grover name.
Nothing About Grover are endorsed by Taylor Guitars & Knucklehead strings.
