Spawn Grunt tasks in new process

I have been using grunt-execute to launch my app.js node server.

I also have a grunt watch task.

Both of these tasks don't end, they just sit there waiting. The problem is that I need to start both of them.

Can I start one in a separate process, or thread (I don't know the correct term) so they can both run at the same time?

I have tried grunt-spawn and grunt-shell-spawn but the don't actually launch a separate thing, so the second task never gets run. If I start with the watch, the server never gets executed, if I start with the server, the watch never runs.

Thanks!

grunt-concurrent enables you to run multiple blocking tasks at once!
