New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The award-winning Grascals bring a new single from their forthcoming album with the song "Heartbreak Hall Of Fame." Smooth but driving with a classic sound, "Heartbreak Hall of Fame" merges vintage Country with modern Bluegrass in just the right way, a combination the Grascals do so well. Written by Larry Joe Cox, Ray Edwards and Dicky Minor, it tells the story of unrequited love and a man whose suffering is endured through this bitter lament.
"Somewhere in the record books, There will be your name
And a list of all the hearts you broke while you played your cheatin' game"
Lead vocals are performed by the band's young, talked-about singer John Bryanwith sterling Grascals harmonies by the recognized voice of Terry Eldredge and the resonant baritone of Terry Smith. "Heartbreak Hall of Fame" is the most recent single from this band's upcoming release that follows the success of their 2017 release, Before Breakfast.
About The Grascals
Great musicians will always find a way to make good music, but for great musicians to make great music, they must form a bond - one that, more often than not, goes beyond the purely musical to the personal. For The Grascals, that bond has been forged at the intersection of personal friendships, shared professional resumes and an appreciation for the innovative mingling of bluegrass and country music that has been a hallmark of the Nashville scene for more than forty years.
Their cutting-edge modern bluegrass is delivered with a deep knowledge of, and admiration for, the work of the music's founding fathers. Timely yet timeless, The Grascals make music that is entirely relevant to the here and now, yet immersed in traditional values of soul and musicianship. It's a unique sound that has earned three Grammy nominations and two Entertainer of the Year awards from the International Bluegrass
Music Association, as well as national media attention that seems to perpetually elude acts entrenched in niche genres. Such appearances include The
Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Fox & Friends, The Late Late Show with
Craig Ferguson, and CBS' The Talk. All the while, stages that represent the strongest bastions of tradition continually welcome them, as evidenced by the over 150 performances on the Grand Ole Opry. Honors also include performing twice for President
George W. Bush and at President Barack Obama's inaugural ball at the Smithsonian.
As their records prove, The Grascals' rare musical empathy gives them an unerring ear for just the right touch to illuminate each offering's deepest spirit - whether they're digging into one of their original songs or reworking a bluegrass classic or a pop standard. Take for instance, fan favorite, "Last
Train to Clarksville." Non-bluegrass listeners enjoy a new take on a familiar song, while diehard bluegrass audiences who may have never heard the
Monkees classic, respond in-kind, not even realizing that the song has been Grascalized.
