"Grassmarket is a trio of singer/songwriters creating lush and nuanced folk-pop. Their music combines warm, honest songwriting, layered pop arrangements, and stellar old-time instrumentation..."
Though Grassmarket draws from traditional bluegrass and country, the trio cannot be slotted firmly into either category... it's the songs' content that really gives this band its weight, shifting from intimate soul-scrapers to historical artifact with precision, conviction, and most importantly, heart. There's no one else in town making this music.

Wednesday, November 14, 2012 Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who preordered You are for the Ocean. People who support independent creators are smart, attractive, and witty. Fact. We have met our goal—107% of it, in fact—and we have been eating nothing but caviar since we had word.
