Introducing our seasoned grunge rock band “Group Therapy” with Gerry Hill on lead vocals & guitar, Julian Hope on drums and Phil Grinter lead guitar. They were sensational at the MarkJoeHope Variety show recently. Gerry also has released his debut single “Down that Road” on Spotify. Gerry has been undertaking out songwriting and recording classes which has been a real enabler to releasing his unique sound and moving forward with his music career. Looking forward to the next single Gerry.
