Grok began as a Hamilton "super-group" of sorts, being largely a collaboration between brothers [[Scott Brodie]] (bass, vocals) from [[Inchworm]] (and later [[Girlinky]]) and [[Grant Brodie]] (keyboards) from (amongst other bands) [[Dribbly Cat Attraction]]. Other members were [[Chris Fish]] (guitar, Korg, 4 track) from [[Love and Violence]], [[Department of Corrections]], [[mOoFiSh]] and others, and [[Max Ward]] (drums), ex-[[Three Men Missing]] and [[the Sandbabies]].<br> | Grok began as a Hamilton "super-group" of sorts, being largely a collaboration between brothers [[Scott Brodie]] (bass, vocals) from [[Inchworm]] (and later [[Girlinky]]) and [[Grant Brodie]] (keyboards) from (amongst other bands) [[Dribbly Cat Attraction]].
