It’s Grood. It means Good plus Great. Grood.

Thanks for waiting.

For all new Grood music and videos, go to the following:

facebook.com/GroodMusic
youtube.com/GroodMusic
www.GroodMusic.com (not ready yet)

The new idea for the new band: “Just do it already!” We just decide on a name, we just make videos all the time, and we just write music constantly and don’t give it too much of a second thought. There will be mistakes all the time but everything will be just fine. And you should come to shows and check out our art. And make mistakes. Just do it already.

With this honor comes great responsibility, and Savvy usually delivers.

This show on Nov 30th is very special. It is the second annual ACTual show, where Savvy “acts out” many of the fan favorite songs they have lovingly crafted over their 3 year existence.

There is definitely no acting; more like each song materializes in a very physical form. It’s a good thing. For clarification, watch the following short clip:
