Cathartic release of energy – Grandson brings his new album to Barba Negra

Grandson, known for his sharp social commentary and heart-wrenching songs based on real stories, shows a darker, harder and more uncompromising side than ever before with the release of his third album, INERTIA. The talented Canadian-American artist will present his new album in Budapest on February 14, 2026, at Barba Negra. 

Grandson has played to huge audiences several times recently, including performing at Linkin Park's comeback concert and headlining the renowned Left Field Tent at Glastonbury Festival.
His Budapest debut in 2023 was immediately sold out at the Akvarium, and he was seen also in a full tent at Sziget on the Revolut stage in 2024.

The new album INERTIA will ignite mosh pits while provoking further examination of its themes, and one in which American politics is the context to connect with a broader, progressive international audience. “So many people are fighting for different things,” he concludes. “I believe that finding connection with one another, through music or otherwise, and making collective demands for a brighter, better future, can lead us to a more holistic way of living, thinking, and consuming. It all starts with a cathartic release of energy. Meet you in the pit.” – Everyone is invited to listen to Grandson: meet at Barba Negra on February 14.
