What a weekend! A huge thank you to all the great techs, venue staff, and promoters who presented us at the @royalmcphersontheatres in Victoria and the @commodoreballroom in Vancouver (where this end of show pic was as taken.) An extra huge thanks to everyone who came out to the shows for a couple of evenings that exceeded all our hopes and expectations, and infinitely gigantic thank yous to our tour pals, the mighty @limblifter. Until next time which happens at the @barnsideharvestfest in Ladner on Sunday September 13, where Grapes and LL will perform on a bill including Can Con legends Kim Mitchell and Tom Cochrane (who also produced our album “Treehouse”!) We can’t wait! See you then!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to our shows last week—you made it an unforgettable experience. We’d also like to extend our gratitude to the incredible staff and crew at @festivalplacesp @thetownetheatre and @thedreamcafepenticton for hosting us and making everything run smoothly.

Wishing you all an amazing rest of the year! We can’t wait to see you again in 2025.

And that’s a wrap on probably the most intense gigging @thegrapesofwrath have ever done: 9 sets over 4 days (+ encores!). Thank you to all the great promoters, techs, staff, and especially the audiences who came to see us at the @trailsidemusichall in Charlottetown, @casino_nb in Moncton, and @carletonhalifax. These were the first maritime shows that we have done in at least 32 years and we really hope to do this for you all again soon – we had a great time! #thegrapesofwrath #canadianband #halifax #moncton #charlottetown photos by @NS_scooke & #bennyfong

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.
