"Grinder" is all Gary Clark Jr., words and music, one of the 13 originals on The Story of Sonny Boy Slim, the American blues-rocker's second studio album, which Warner Bros. put out on September 11, 2015.
The record finds Clark stirring blues, rock and soul into one pot and dropping in the odd dash of hip-hop and R&B. Its title splices two nicknames from his younger days: Sonny Boy, which his mother gave him, and Slim, which the Austin blues scene pinned on him for his tall, skinny build. The album went all the way to number one on Billboard's Top Blues Albums chart in October 2015.
