Bio / Background
If I told you that The Grackles sound like they follow logically through a line drawn from Point A: Mission of Burma to Point B: The Pixies to Point C: Nirvana, you would probably say, "Asshole, you just described the last 15 years of indie rock. Thanks for all your help."
And you'd be right: that didn't help and I'm an asshole.
So let's try a different route, a new way of looking at a modern-day band: the day job.
John Huston, lead singer and guitarist, is a reporter in the Chicago suburbs, a beat that has him bump bellies with mobsters on frequent occasion, and has notched him national awards for his work exposing environmental racism and unconscionable crime levels. As the band's primary songwriter, there's no doubt the humanity John must document in his 9-to-5 shows up in his lyrics. And without getting all Oprah, there's an endearing element of the reporter's search for truth in his songs, as well.
