Grant Peeples is a Florida-based folk singer-songwriter whose music blends razor-sharp socio-political commentary with threaded humor and emotional balladry. He describes himself as a “tree-hugger that watches NASCAR,” and his work is marked by both cultural insight and compassion. A recipient of the Focus Foundation Award for Creative Excellence, Grant tours nationally, regularly appearing at festivals like the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival, the 30A Songwriters Festival, and the Florida Folk Festival.
Born in Tallahassee in 1957, he spent years living on a remote Caribbean island writing poetry and rebuilding his musical life.
