Grandson

Grandson is the stage name of Jordan Edward Benjamin, a Canadian-American artist who fuses bluesy hard rock, hip-hop and EDM production. Now based in LA, he was raised in Toronto in a musical family, growing up on genres like dancehall, hip hop and classic rock. He gained prominence with his 2018 hit ‘Blood//Water’, a scathing critique of political corruption. His debut album ‘Death of an Optimist’ (2020), introduced a conceptual battle between hope and cynicism, while his latest release, ‘I Love You, I'm Trying’ (2023), explores themes of mental health and personal growth. Known for his raw energy and unflinching lyrics, Grandson's music confronts issues like gun violence, addiction and social injustice. Intense and immersive, his live shows make him a must-see for fans of Rage Against the Machine, Yungblud and others. #GMM25
