Wakey Wakey - Overreactivist

The independent solo act is returning to, and at once expanding, the emotional politics behind his super-charged self-released debut album, Almost Everything I Wish I'd Said the Last Time I Saw You. The debut album featured the hit single "War Sweater," which premiered on the prime-time drama, One Tree Hill, soaring to Number 13 on the iTunes charts. On his third album, Wakey Wakey combines experience and lessons learned through the filter of the emotionally-political landscape of being an independent artist, pushing the bounds on his music to push the bounds on this exploration of self. Says Grubbs, "I couldn't be happier... it's been a crazy few years for me, at times really amazing, and at times really rough... I took all of that and poured it into a new album. I've returned to my roots in every way imaginable, and as a result, some amazing things are happening."
