With an approach based in free jazz, GRID takes the plunge into darker, heavier and more psychedelic realms of improvised music. The trio, featuring Matt Nelson (Battle Trance: Elder Ones) on saxophone, Tim Dhal (Lydia Lunch; Pulverize the Sound; Child Abuse) on bass, and Nick Podgurski (Feast of the Epiphany; New Firmament) on drums, harnesses the clamorous spirit of free jazz while venturing beyond it’s acoustic borders through the implementation of electronic processing and dirge-like tempos akin to Doom and Sludge. Regarding their 2017 debut on NNA Tapes, Noisey called GRID “a three-way chat. It’s a conversation between musicians with differing musical opinions, but their debut album has become a shared dialogue that is as fluid as it is improvised”.

“The trio’s common denominator is 70’s free jazz - but that genre’s intensity at a gruelling pace, through manipulated electronics.” – NPR

“Though the textures are extreme in nature, and densely layered, GRID doesn’t seem primarily interested in bludgeoning listeners.” - Pitchfork
