A Grape Dope - Arthur King Presents A Grape Dope: Backyard Bangers - LP
A Grape Dope is the moniker of John Herndon, drummer, music producer, and founding member of the iconic musical group Tortoise. His discography includes recordings with Isotope 217, Five Style, Starlicker, Exploding Star Orchestra, Pulsar Quartet, Poster Children, and more. Herndon's debut solo album, Arthur King Presents A Grape Dope: Backyard Bangers, is the amalgamation of many eclectic influences. It's a record impossible to tag with any one genre, yet is assured in its execution. Backyard Bangers consolidates blasts of experimental hip hop beats, grinding lo-fi house grooves, clattering noise passages, and even subdued synth ambience into a concise and colorful 32 minute journey.
