Most Humbling Moment: Opening up for Judas Priest

Final Words: Growing up in Billings MT and surrounding areas was never the easiest life, but it brought life to what this band is all about what they will carry from it forever, GRUDGE. Singer Gerrick Phillips, guitarist Richard Candelaria, and bassist Brian Coleman had played in every band that had been in the city since they were 13 years old. Finally hooking up with each other proved to be the best solution. Phillips and Candelaria's songwriting collaborations gave GRUDGE a sound that struck a chord with fans, earning the band a response that was huge, even for small Northwestern city of Billings, MT. The music of their debut album, Forgiveness, was defined by the rough times they had experienced in their first five years together, when released in 2001. The album, release on 7N/BMG entertainment had received critical acclaim globally. Such recognition landed GRUDGE in feature articles of major hard rock/metal publications like Hit Parader and BWBK and had allowed the group to share the stage with multiple metal legends, like an opening spot on the Judas Priest "World Domination" tour. For years, GRUDGE has persisted to remain a dominant name in underground hard rock/heavy metal acts. GRUDGE is the band, who still finds their way through the smoke and onto the stage. They have carried the flag for heavy music, alongside others, and have never abandoned their raw nature. GRUDGE, true to their music, and their emotion. Ignoring trends and taking musical classification head-on, they continue to write from the head and from the heart.
