Grandaddy Overview

Grandaddy formed in Modesto, CA in 1992, with the group eventually consisting of Jason Lytle, Aaron Burtch, Tim Dryden, Jim Fairchild, and Kevin Garcia. The band initially broke through with 1997's Under the Western Freeway and the NME-praised single Summer Here Kids. The band's sound, atmospheric electronics meet warped Americana, crystallized on 2000's Sophtware Slump, which was met with breathless hype and earned the band Next Big Thing status.

Success and Touring

Tireless rounds of international touring and mountains of fawning press led to 2003's Sumday, increasing album sales, more touring, more press, TV appearances, and a slot on the main stage at the Glastonbury festival. The band produced another EP and an album entitled Just Like the Fambly Cat, before disbanding in 2006.

Reunion and Recent Activity

Following a brief live reunion in 2012, Grandaddy fully returned in 2017 with Last Place, their first album in over a decade, which was embraced by fans and acclaimed by critics. A sold-out tour was cut short by the unexpected death of Kevin Garcia, and all future plans were canceled indefinitely.

Upcoming Tour

In 2025, Grandaddy will rise again for its first North American tour in over 20 years in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of their landmark album The Sophtware Slump. KGAR 4EVR
