PREVIEW: Grieves @ Bottom of the Hill, 10/25/11

Haven’t been out to see a show lately? Well, here’s one for ya: Grieves and Budo will be playing at in San Francisco at Bottom of the Hill on October 25. Grieves‘ insightful Minneapolis hip-hop is definitely a must-see. His sound is full of struggle and intellect. Grieves will be backed by his collaborator/producer, Budo, who puts soul-inspired beats behind Grieves’ lyrics. Budo uses loops with cello, piano, and saxophones to give the tracks a full sound.

Grieves just put out his first album with Atmosphere‘s Rhymesayers label, and it won’t be long before it’ll be tough to see him at small venues like Bottom of the Hill. Now is your chance, and  we guarantee you’ll walk out of this show inspired and energized.

Minneapolis emcee Prof opens the show, and tickets are a cheap $12, so there’s no excuses.
