"American music in a blender with the lid off!" That's how one crazed fan describedTHE GRANDSONS, and we couldn't agree more. Quirky, original, refreshing, and always swinging, they're beefing up the band for this groovy night at the Spanish Ballroom by adding some horns and piano. Don't miss big hits like "Sock Drawer Millionaire" and my personal favorite, "Paul Cezanne (the Father of Cubism)." Yahooo!
