[griz_joshuahanford_5]NEW YORK, NY - December 9, 2014 - Detroit's own DJ/Producer/Musician, GRiZ (aka Grant Kwiecinski), is excited to release a new track "A Fine Way To Die," as a gift to his fans just in time for the holidays. PRESS HERE<http://www.afinewaytodie.com/> to stream the track and get a free download now! In conjunction with today's news, the artist has also announced that he will be releasing a new album in Spring 2015. Says GRiZ of the collection, "FINALLY!!! I am so so so so so stoked to release new music! It has been such a busy year and I am very proud to finally give you guys a listen and free download to my first single, 'A Fine Way to Die,' featuring my good compadre Orlando Napier! Between recording horn lines, drums, writing guitar lines, and recording the most killin' vocals, this song took a full year to make. I really hope you guys enjoy this monster of a tune!!! Get the funk down!" Stay tuned for more announcements in the New Year.

Those in Detroit can snag tickets to GRiZ's hometown holiday show, GRiZmas, which will take place at the Masonic Temple Theatre on Saturday, December 20th. Special guests will include ODESZA and Will Sessions. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit smarturl.it/Grizmas<http://smarturl.it/Grizmas>.

GRiZ has blown up quickly. At 24 years old, he has asserted his place in the music world with his sax-infused sounds that find heart and soul within the beat of the dance floor. A musically trained ear from the start, the artist played the alto saxophone since elementary school and took piano and saxophone lessons his entire life. He recently supported Bassnectar, Pretty Lights and Big Gigantic on their respective tours, which then led to his own headlining tour - all within a year. His first album, Mad Liberation, given away for free really put him on the map in 2012. His single "Smash the Funk" was featured all over, from Jay Z's Life+Times to This Song Is Sick. The popularity of the release landed him on stages all over the place, from his hometown Movement to Coachella, Electric Forest, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Lightning in a Bottle, Governor's Ball, Diplo's Mad Decent Block Parties, Summer Set and the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheater. He also found time to play one half of Grizmatik with the Gramatik crew. The follow up solo album, Rebel Era, features a scorching blues undertone and a wild ride through GRiZ's eclectic influences - from rock to dubstep. His hit single off of the album, "Gettin Live," has already seen over one million plays on Soundcloud.
