In the few months that Grierson has been living in Jozi, he has opened for Yoav, Dan Patlansky, Farry Purkiss, Josie Field and John Ellis; amongst many other solo performances at venues in and around Gauteng.

Never losing an opportunity to make music, Grierson has joined the Jozi based Indie Pop/Rock band, Cold War Candy Drop and fulfils the role of bassist. With Cold War Candy Drop, Grierson has shared the stage with The Parlotones, Kinky Robot, The Ice Project and 3rd World Spectator.
