Grant A. Balfour

Grant Balfour was born the son of African immigrants in the sleepy port town of Miami Beach. He's got a graduate degree in English, a mail-order Doctorate of Divinity, and a Ph.D from the school of the open road. When not recording offbeat independent pop, writing tabloid poetry, or editing travel magazines, he enjoys refurbishing antique sound reproduction equipment (go, Edison Standard, go!) and building mechanical components out of duct tape. His favorite films include: Man Facing South-East, Night Of The Living Dead, Raising Arizona, City Of Lost Children and West Side Story, although most nights he curls up with a good book. Also, he remains married and lives in West Palm Beach, Florida with his wife, children, numerous animals and several million semi-domesticated bees.
