Grape Room is a Jetsons-style prog pop band from Brattleboro VT, now at home in Los Angeles. Grape Room is the 2nd level of Great Valley, sometimes called "Great Valley's Grape Room." Great Valley was a legendary cult pop band that released 7 albums thru Feeding Tube Records and NNA Tapes and Spooky Town Records. The 1st Grape Room tape GRAPE ROOM'S PURPLE SLIME slipped out from BUFU Records in Feb 2015 and you can hear the whole thing here--

 
The second Grape Room album CARTOON LAND was released May 12 2015 by Feeding Tube Records. CARTOON LAND was written and performed by Peter Nichols and Jo Miller-Gamble and Danny Bissette, the ultimate Great Valley band, in search of a pop so candy-coated it becomes demented and alien.




Grape Room also wrote all the music for Peter's Window and the LA-based pop singer Tall Boys.

In 2016, Peter and Louise founded NICEY MUSIC in their new Los Angeles home. Now finishing 2 Grape albums for 2016, and producing for the superdiva Banny Grove.

--Selected press for Great Valley and Grape Room--
"In the great time capsules of what self-made culture meant in the afterbirth of the oughts, Great Valley will forever stand in rank and file with some of the most influential and inventive iconoclasts in the who-is-who of today's underground upstarts." --IMPOSE

"Every snyth-pop/post punk band of the 80's tried in vain to do what Brattleboro, VT's Great Valley have done. The band creates a wonderful patchwork of damaged pop that is ominous and spaced out yet dancey and hopeful all at once—more proof that Vermont has one of the best music scenes in America." --Decoder

"Great Valley excel at marrying pure pop sensibilities to utterly weird conceptual/musical ideas, and as a result, their tunes are at once instantly memorable yet always blurred and off in the best way possible" --Tiny Mix Tapes
