About Me

Grant Pedersen is a twentyfive year old solo artist coming out of Coon Rapids. You can often times find him in local coffee shops around the Anoka area playing a mix of his own music along with some covers. Lately he has been branching out into other suburbs and is even making his way into the Twin Cities music scene. You'll hear songs from Oasis, Jack Johnson, Foo Fighters, and even a tune from Bob Seger. Some of his other influences include the likes of Dave Mathews, Jason Mraz, Howie Day, and John Mayer.
Grant has been spending a lot of time writing new music and is working on getting things prepared for work in the studio. He hopes to get enough done to be able to release something for you all to take home when you go out to see him. A fun act to catch, its not uncommon for him to break into lines of skat or free style rhyme. So come on out some time.
