  • Bio

    Grand Island released their debut-album 'Say no to sin' in 2006, and the album was nothing less than a summer storm of a record, or a mountain dam cracking open perhaps. After the release of 'Say no to sin' the band finished three European tours, performances at larger festivals on the continent as well as invitations to South by Southwest and Eurosonic. The band also received nominations for Spellemann- (Norwegian Grammy) and Alarmawards. Grand Island then started to prepare for the release of their second album. Sweet and tears had been left behind, and blood had been spilt. Cars crashed and bridges burned. All so that the band with pride and humility could present "Boys & Brutes", an album for those that wish to cry, dance or fight. The album was recorded and mixed in the famous Propeller studios with Mike Hartung (A-ha, Shining, Satyricon, JR Ewing and more) as producer. The album was mastered in Los Angeles by Dave Collins (Queens of the stone age, Madonna, Black Sabbath, Sting, and more.) Grand Island finsihed a Norwegian tour in the spring of 2008, followed by a European tour as well as selected festivals through-out northern Europe. The album received great reviews and was nominated for a norwegian Grammy (Spellemann) for best Rock album. The band released their 3rd album 'Songs from Östra Knoll 1:22 25th of january 2010. The album got major airtime on Norwegian radio and the critics gave top score in all their reviews The new album "Della Loved Steve" is due for release March 15 2013! Releaseconsert March 23 at The Crossroad Club Oslo, Norway
