We play full instrumental sets. With up to 90 minutes of original music and 180 minutes with the addition of covers, we can play and adapt our set to fit your needs. We have had a lot of success at breweries, wineries, and venues that bring their guests music for the listener. The style of show that we perform lends itself well to an outdoor setting as well.
Playing with a focus on the music, The Grinning Man incorporate rock, jazz, surf, and funk into a psychedelic and progressive blend of instrumentals. The band started as a trio in 2009. In 2010, the band added a keyboardist, which gave the bands music a much fuller and more expansive sound. With the now formed quartet, the bands sets have evolved from playing surf and rock, to a more varied set, which expands into progressive rock, jazz, and a little bit of a jam band feel.
The Grinning Man have one EP, released in 2013, and are set to debut their first full length album within the next year.
Currently we do not have any technical requirements. We can adapt to just about any small-medium sized stage.
