Hempolics biography sample
Drummer, Musician, DJ, Producer & Composer..
Having heard the new smash hit “Green Line” by The Hempolics, I was fascinated with the band and who they were as musicians. I was fortunate enough to be able to get an interview with the man behind the band Grippa Laybourne and ask him a few questions.
When was The Hempolics founded?
The Hempolics has been founded quite a while now. As I am a sound engineer, I recorded and mixed records for many years and with many artists.
The Hempolics was a hobby for me for many years as I never had the time to really finish the demos I made over the years.I had a son really young and was constantly mixing in the studio, so yes it was a hobby.
When was your first release?

Our first official release was Serious which was on Reggae Roast in It w
