Blondie-Grunt

Summary by Gordon Lamb

Blondie-Grunt is the Blondie alter-ego of the members of Saint Louis, MO’s Bunnygrunt. Yes, an entire set of classic Blondie hits performed by one of the longest running indie pop bands in the states. The Athens PopFest is happy to accommodate this sure to be talked about performance.

Five Questions with Blondie-Grunt

1. What are your five desert island records?


Plastic Letters, Parallel Lines, Eat To The Beat, AutoAmerican, American Gigolo Soundtrack

2. Could you classify your sound for people who haven't heard it before?


We sound a little bit like Blondie

3. What is your favorite place to play, and why?


The Feisty Bulldog in St Louis because, um, it's the only place we've ever played

4. What is the weirdest thing you take on tour?


Well, since Bunnygrunt has never really dabbled in "stage wear" the fact that we're bringing "stage wear" is, I guess, a little odd, y'know, for us

5. What should people expect from your Athens PopFest performance?


To honor its 30th anniversary this year, we will be primarily drawing from the Parallel Lines album, so many good songs!
