Herb Grimaud Jr. has been featured before in the pages of Down The Line. We did an interview with him about his band Sound Gallery several months back, and he also is a member is the band Stranger Kings on the Subdivision record label which is discussed more in the cover story on Campuzano. I’ve been talking to Herb online for a couple of years now, but actually had the good fortune of meeting him and getting tattooed by him back in September of this year when my wife and I flew to California to see the Aunt Bettys Ford reunion.
Besides good music, Herb and I also share a love of tattoos and horror movies. Below are a few of the pieces that Herb sports, and several of them are perfect for this time of year with Halloween right around the corner. We just wanted to share the artwork with the readers this go around for our Tattoo You section. The pieces that Mr. Grimaud wears are all top notch, the detail in the black and grey is stunning and the color pieces are bright and bold! Thanks to Herb for giving us the pics, and thanks too for the great piece that he did on me!
