Dave Grigger

Dave Grigger is a fictional character played by Keith Doom in the 2018 film, Grim.

Dave is the lead singer for the band "Dave Grigger and the Grave Diggers" with Kit Johnston, Ian Obscene, and Kurtis Murder.

Development and Casting
The character was created by Fritz Bishop in an earlier script predating Tar City, he chose to revive the character in name alone which was originally created by actor and musician, Calhoun Keating Malay.

Keith Doom was cast after appearing in a largely non-speaking role as one of the Hoodlums in Bigsby, named "Chug".

The backstory involving the band and their guitarist (Kurtis) getting too drunk to play the show was created by Adam LeMoine and Shane Wilkie in order to resolve a scheduling conflict between actors and explain a character's absence in the performance.

Keith Doom, Mitch Hines, Riley Hill and Adam LeMoine performed "NASACar Racing" by Keith Doom and the Wrecking Crew for their scene in the film.
