Groanbox, the North American trio of Michael Ward-Bergeman, Cory Seznec and Paul Clifford, are a musical hybrid of ideas and ideals. They are at first glance a roots band, soaked in the traditions of American music, with all the guts of rock and roll and all the soul of the wandering troubadour. But somewhere along the way, that troubadour turned off the road and, from the melting pot of New Orleans, began a new journey that would take the Groanbox sound to new and unexplored places...
Groanbox have toured extensively throughout the UK and the east coast of the USA. They have released three CDs: Smokestack Trilogy in 2006, Fences Come Down in 2007, and Gran Bwa in 2008.
