PLS Note that the MP3's on this site are no where near as good quality as a CD. It must be the encoding program we use or similar. If you would like a CD of any of the tracks or any mixture please email info@gran-torino.com
You might notice that there are songs on here from Squib. Squib is what the GT musicians have naturally evolved in to. No vocals just experimental anything goes fusion music. We will be releasing an album this year hopefully so please keep your eyes and ears peeled for the bumpf that goes with that.

Gran Torino are here to spread the gospel of Funk, Acid Jazz, Soul and the tightest, most driving grooves.

The band are influenced by a wide range of Jazz, Funk, Soul, Rock, Dance and Fusion Music.

Why this name?
Its the Funky car of 70's police show Starsky & Hutch
Do you play live?
We play live all the time all over the Midlands in pubs and clubs (anywhere that will have us really!) There isn't one 'best' moment because most gigs are really good. It makes you funk a little more when the crowd dig you.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Not sure really. Bad financialy for artists and record companies but makes music far more accessible.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I'm sure if the right offer came along we would seriously consider it.
Your influences?
This is a tricky one so i guess you should listen to the tunes and make your own conclusions
