Hailing from the warm shores of California, five-piece band The Gromble make a charming blend of orchestral alt-folk and indie rock, honed live supporting acts like The Lemonheads. With the classic intensity of early greats Pavement, Weezer and Neutral Milk Hotel and a taste for the heartland classics, they arrive somewhere between Grouplove, Miniature Tigers and Vampire Weekend – and they take their name from Nickelodeon’s Aaahh!!! Real Monsters – a perfect indicator of their unashamed love for 90s pop culture and for the sense of humour that runs beneath the surface of their songs.
