Icelandic Post-Punk Band “GRÓA brought a fiery, delightfully aggressive energy to the stage unlike any of the other performers.” – KEXP “GRÓA embody both punk’s scrappy passion and its independent spirit.” – Paste Magazine “A force to be reckoned with in Reyjavik’s grassroots scene.” – Clash “The showstopper of the [Iceland Airwaves 2022] festival…GRÓA is a radiant punk band…the three-piece band emits infectious energy which the attendees eat up.” – The Line of Best Fit Hot take: the spirit of punk will always belong to the youth. Not to say you can’t still be punk as you grow older, but there’s something about that visceral reaction to that world that just carries more weight and impact when the torch is carried by the upcoming generation who’s dealing with the last generation’s bullshit. Case in point, Icelandic trio GRÓA. When GRÓA performed at the Kex Hostel at the 2019 Iceland Airwaves, they brought a fiery, delightfully aggressive energy to the stage unlike any of the other performs. The teenage musicians have quickly made an impact on their local scene, dropping two records that’d fit in nicely in the heyday of SST Records and grimiest of Los Angeles venues.
