Biography

In 2014, Gryner joined his sister Emm Gryner's side project, Trapper, with Sean Kelly (on guitar), Emm (on vocals), Jordan Kern (on bass) and Tim Timleck (ex-Universal Honey on drums), playing "1980s-style melodic hard rock." In May 2015, Trapper opened for Brit-rockers Def Leppard on 3 Canadian tour dates in Montréal, Ottawa and London, Ontario. Emm Gryner had met and become friends with Def Leppard lead singer Joe Elliot when she toured as a backing singer with David Bowie.

On May 29, 2015, Trapper played the Great Hall in Toronto with special guest Chris Hadfield singing two songs with the band.

On May 11, 2016, Frank Gryner directed a video for Def Leppard, for the song "Man Enough," filmed in Little Rock, Arkansas.
