About

GROUNDED

GROUNDED came up the hard way, on stage in the clubs of the southeast Phoenix Valley, starting around 1997. Hollywood Alley in Mesa. Donnie Brasco's, the Clubhouse and the Last Exit in Tempe. Road nights up north at the LumberJack House in Flagstaff. Those rooms were home, and the band earned every one of them.

They shared bills with national acts Sacred Reich, Death on Wednesday and The Black Moods, and with Valley bands Fred Green, Chalmers Green, Haggis and VinFiz. Their album Awake was recorded and mastered by Larry Love, guitarist for Interscope's Bionic Jive, and its track "Intravenous" became the song they took to Arizona rock radio. In 2002, cornerband.com put GROUNDED on its homepage as the featured band, and in February 2008 AZ Weekly's Get Out magazine ran a band profile.

They wrote enough songs for two albums and pressed ten-song CDs into every hand that reached for one.

Now GROUNDED is back. After cutting an EP at Saltmine Studio Oasis in Mesa, the band recorded its new songs with Ralph Patlan at his studio, and five new singles roll out starting with "Right Now" on November 6.
