35 years ago today, our first single from the album “Now and Again” was released to record stores. “All The Things I Wasn’t” was our first top 20 single. The photo was taken by the legendary William Claxton at the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver, B.C.

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Tom Harrison.

As many of the countless tributes from fellow musicians have already expressed, Tom’s impact on the Vancouver music scene was incalculably vast. For our band, his support was career-altering; there is no doubt that he was instrumental in helping The Grapes sign to a major record label.

In 1986, the A&R team from Capitol-EMI Records was in Vancouver to check out a local band. During a set break, Tom suggested they visit the Savoy Club in Gastown to catch some of our show. That was the night that the ball got rolling, with us eventually being signed directly to Capitol.

In the following years, Tom consistently supported us, with positive album and concert reviews, as well as features in local papers. It was always great to run into him at a local bar, have a drink and discuss music; his knowledge being very deep. He was such a champion of the Vancouver music scene-an enthusiastic pioneer especially when indie bands needed all the exposure they could get.

Thanks again Tom.

It is with the utmost excitement that we announce the addition of THE GRAPES OF WRATH to our festival lineup. The legendary Canadian artists will perform on July 23 along with Chilliwack, The Northern Pikes, Megan Nash, The North Sound, People of the Sun, Karissa Hoffart, Kara Golemba, and many more.
