About GRiZ
At age 24, GRiZ (aka Grant Kwiecinski) is already being hailed for his unique sound. 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. Say It Loud serves as a follow-up to its more funk-step predecessors, Rebel Era and Mad Liberation. With assists from rapper Talib Kweli, Afrobeat-group Antibalas, Ivan Neville, a L.A.'s Children's Chorus, and others, the album finds a golden mean between an abundance of brass instruments, liberal use of soulful vocals, and shimmering, synth beats. The name Say It Loud is an homage to James Brown's funk-soul spirit and pioneering messages of equality, and the horns throughout the album shout-out to one of GRiZ's favorite albums, Miles Davis' masterpiece, Sketches of Spain. Late last year, the artist dropped the funk-fuzz single "A Fine Way to Die" (co-written with singer-songwriter Orlando Napier) to tease his new sound, and the track quickly took the coveted #1 spot on Hype Machine's most popular chart. With an epic list of festival performances (Movement, Coachella, Electric Forest, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Lightning in a Bottle, Governor's Ball, Diplo's Mad Decent Block Parties, Summer Set etc ), and tours with everyone from Bassnectar to Pretty Lights to Big Gigantic under his belt, Say It Loud is a natural next step for GRiZ.
