Grady Spencer & the Work
Grady Spencer & The Work make their debut at Bubba's Brewhouse in Durant, OK!
Born in Lubbock and raised in the country outside of a town called Paducah, Grady Spencer’s
roots dig deep into Texas soil. By day, Spencer is a foreman for a commercial construction
company. By any other time, he’s songwriter and front-man of Grady Spencer & The Work.
The Work originally formed in 2013 on the stage of Paradox Church in Fort Worth, Texas.
Drummer Blake Sager was joined by bassist Johnny Hatcher in 2016, followed by guitarist
Tyler Martin in 2018. The Work’s music reflects its members: honest, good-timing, with a nod
to blue-collar roots.
In 2013, the band recorded and self-produced its first album at 1916 Studios in Kyle, Texas.
Released that same year, Sleep was the band’s first introduction to the Fort Worth music
scene. “Things to Do” was eventually picked up by the Fort Worth Visitors Bureau via Tom
Martens, and in 2017 the city sent Spencer and The Work to Niles City Sound to rerecord and
release the track as a single.
Sophomore record The Line Between was primarily tracked at January Sound in Dallas, Texas.
The band worked with Magnolia Records and released the album in 2016. The Line Between
carried the band beyond Forth Worth city limits—a following started to crop up across the
state and numbers rose on streaming platforms, catapulting The Work to their next album.
