ARTS Pick: GRiZ

Grant Kwiecinski aka GRiZ is only going to get bigger. At age 23, the multi-talented artist has carved out a unique musical niche that’s a little bit of funk, a little bit of rap, a little bit of soulful sax, and it’s all GRiZ’s eclectic sound. His rising popularity landed him on festival stages from Coachella to Red Rocks Amphitheater. He just launched his own label, Liberated Music, aimed at giving himself and musicians the independence they need to create truly innovative tunes.

Tuesday 4/7. $15-20, 9pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St. 245-4980.
