Friday, April 6th will see the Ripple Music release of the self-titled album from Portland, Oregon’s HOLY GROVE.
Since 2012, the band has been astounding folks everywhere with their fantastically retro, heavy cosmic-inflected heavy rock. With an enthralling meld of doom metal and stoner rock, Andrea Vidal (Vocals), Trent Jacobs (Guitar), Gregg Emley (Bass), and Eben Travis (Drums), are a contemporary musical force to be reckoned with.
Ripple’s Todd Severin commented on the addition of Holy Grove to the label, saying:
“Holy Grove have already proven to be one of the rising forces in the doom scene, with their atmospheric yet crushingly heavy sound. Thrilled to welcome them into the family and spread their music around the world.”
