An indie singer/songwriter with a reflective, literate style in the vein of influences like Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell, Ethan Gruska was half of indie pop duo the Belle Brigade before launching a solo career with 2017’s Slowmotionary. He found demand as a producer, as well, after working on Phoebe Bridgers' debut album, Stranger in the Alps, from the same year. He’s also written songs for John Legend and Kimbra, among others.
