The Grumps are an engaging & unique band based in & around Portland, ME.  Members Ryan Halliburton, Eric Bauer, & Michael Krapovicky hope that you can join them in the music & attitude, which is The Grumps.

Since their inception in 2002, The Grumps have been entertaining audiences with relentless fervor unrivaled by most acts touring today. Building their following from just family and friends, The Grumps have seen the enormous benefits of performing more than 200 shows in the past year.  Combined with one of the most exclusive and formidable promotions teams ever accessible to indie rock artists, it's a wonder why you haven't heard of The Grumps already.   In fact you probably have.
Frontman and guitarist has been working as a solo artist since 1996 traveling a circuit from Northern Maine to Greenville, North Carolina.  His favorite periodic element is zinc... he's written a limerick about it.
Percussionist studied with Maine drum legend Dick Demers for over ten years.  He has worked with bands such as, Booker Union, Off the Wall, and Zook's Brew.   His accentual playing comes from years of providing music for various theatrical productions.
Bassist is a multi-instrumentalist who has performed throughout the Northeast; most notably in Zooks Brew (with Eric), who were nominated for Best New Act (2000) by the Portland Phoenix.  Mike joined The Grumps in September 2004 after a long courtship.  That's when the magic happened... and the restraining order expired.
