The Romanian Cultural Institute in London is happy to host and support the official press launch of the single Started by Romanian band Grimus.
When Eden Music producer Adam Whittaker first heard Grimus on Myspace he was blown away. He knew that, with him being based in the UK and the band being based in Romania, it wasn't going to be easy to make a record but this didn't stop him. A few weeks later Adam's mix of In a Glimpse was a number 1 radio hit. The single Started was then recorded in the UK and Romania and mastered in the US.
GRIMUS will be launching the single 'STARTED' at the Romanian Cultural Institute in London, with an exclusive invite only acoustic set and press conference. They will be supporting the mighty DOES IT OFFEND YOU, YEAH? at SUB89 as part of the Outside Inside Festival in Reading on 7th August, and then playing at The Eden Music Management Launch Night on 8th August, which is also an Outside Inside Festival event.
