A Seal, a Tadpole and a Grizzly Bear

These are the corresponding “spirit animals” of the members of The Grates— singer Patience is a seal, drummer Alana is a tadpole, and guitarist John is a grizzly bear, as I have just learnt from the special biography essay posted on the band’s website. I love the song “Burn Bridges” that is now out in video form. The album ‘Teeth Lost Hearts Won’ is coming out on August 2 in Australia. Until then, Fast Louder has Ben Lee interview the band, the band has a blog, and the blog has production photos and more.
