Giant Robot Presents: Rock Quietly session #2: Grand Hallway

Friday, June 17
7:00pm - 10:00pm

GR2
2062 Sawtelle Blvd
Los Angeles, CA


Giant Robot Rock Quietly Sessions featuring Seattle group Grand Hallway accompanied with Goh Nakamura will take the floor at Giant Robot 2. An intimate atmosphere, this six member band will play somewhat unplugged.

Grand Hallway are touring as part of their third album release, "Winter Creatures". Tomo Nakayama, lead vocalist and chief songwriter endured his grandparents death, the birth of a guitar player, Jeramy Koepping's baby, and the closure of the Neptune Theater in Seattle, all contributed to the new songs.

Giant Robot contributor, Goh Nakamura is a singer / songwriter and stars in "Surrogate Valentine," a feature film current on the film festival circuit. Together, Giant Robot and Goh Nakamura have thus far curated two Giant Robot Rock Quietly Sessions with more on the way. Nakamura cites Grand Hallway as one of his favorite bands.
Grand Hallway is awesome, and this should be a really cool, intimate setting to see them play unplugged. I'm just not sure how they're going to fit all six members, plus Goh, plus the audience inside GR2! But I'm sure it'll be fun all the same.
