Grimm Generation Exposed: All You Need To Know About This Enigmatic Band (Or Didn't Want To)

photo: Joe Yunckes

When they're not winning over a tough crowd of metal heads or rocking the house at flower festivals, the Grimm Generation, which features Jason P. Krug (acoustic guitar), Carmen Champagne (vocals) and now talented avant-folkster Lys Guillorn (lap steel, banjo, mandola, and glockenspiel) along with guitarist (and Fleshtones enthusiast) Dave Hogan, who joins them for live excursions, like to answer questions about themselves. In celebration of their gig coming up at the Liquid Lounge at the Connecticut Science Center on June 8, as part of the organization's "Bedrock Birthday", where they will playing four sets, two full GG sets, as well as a Guillorn solo set, and a classic GG set with Hogan, we decided to send principals Krug and Champagne a bunch of questions. Here are their answers. One thing, the questions were answered as a duo, unless otherwise noted, or if the question was addressed to a certain person in the band. Duh! Anyway, enjoy.

Review: Speakeasy "Southpaw"


Speakeasy is pure emotion set in motion. It’s like a chemist took a few moles of Titus Andronicus and Snowing and mixed them ferociously in an Erlenmeyer flask, only to spawn the most real music you’ve ever heard. The trio’s latest album titled “Southpaw” is a product of something grandiose.
