Grails are an American instrumental rock band from Portland, Oregon, active since 1999. Their sound moves freely between post-rock, psychedelia, krautrock and cinematic textures - genre labels never quite stick. Core members Alex Hall and Emil Amos also record together as Lilacs & Champagne. Over a quarter-century they have released nine studio albums, most recently Miracle Music in May 2025.
Grails released their ninth studio album Miracle Music on May 16, 2025 on the Temporary Residence label.
As the first single from the Miracle Music album, the band released the song 'Silver Bells', which Emil Amos described as one of the most aggressive things Grails have ever recorded.
Grails conducted a spring tour along the west coast of the USA with stops in San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland.
Grails performed on the main stage of the Roadburn festival in Tilburg and conducted a European tour with concerts in Athens, London, Manchester, and other cities.
Grails announced a North American tour for summer 2024 in support of the album Anches En Maat with concerts in New York, Boston, Montreal, Toronto, and Chicago.
