Formed in Portland, Oregon in 1999, Grails are an instrumental rock band known for their cinematic soundscapes that blend post-rock, psychedelic, world music, and experimental elements. Evolving from raw, guitar-driven origins to richly textured compositions, the group has built a reputation for expansive, genre-defying albums released through labels like Neurot Recordings and Temporary Residence Ltd. With members including Emil Amos and Alex Hall, Grails have cultivated a devoted international following for their atmospheric performances and immersive, boundary-pushing recordings.
