Gramma's Boyfriend
Past event
Jun 01, 2011
Gramma's Boyfriend started as a half accident in the summer
of 2010. After a long rehearsal with Haley's band, the guys started playing
around and Haley started going crazy. She had thought of the name Gramma's
Boyfriend long before, and dubbed it that night and soon they booked a show at
the turf club, knowing no songs but completely ad libbing everything on the
spot. Eventually the group has come together with a batch of songs, though you
never really know what you're going to get. The band includes Jeremy Ylvisaker,
Luke Anderson, Jacob Hanson, Haley Bonar, and Mike Lewis. Gramma's Boyfriend
floats somewhere between new wave, punk, and Cyndi Lauper on dramamine. They
have one self "released" one album, The Human Eye.
