CMU Approved
Approved: Grip Tight
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 12 July 2017
Producer Benjamin Gregory began releasing singles under the name Grip Tight last year, with his debut EP ‘Never Enough’ resulting in two single releases, the title track and ‘Love’s Gone’. A year on, he’s back with new single ‘Get To Know’.
The beauty of Gregory’s recordings is their simplicity. Created largely using old drum machines and manipulated vocal samples applied to pop song structures, there’s a sparseness to the tracks that matches the emotional vulnerability in their lyrics.
‘Get To Know’ features a guest appearance from KBY – aka Katy Young from Peggy Sue and Deep Throat Choir. Listen to the song here:
