Rocky Graz
Rocky Graz, singer/songwriter from Upstate NY, has been compared to the likes of David Gray, Elvis Costello, and Joe Strummer. He released his independent solo CD “The King of Prince Street†in 2006, writing, performing and producing all of the tracks himself. His latest CD, "Simple and Cold" released in August 2007 is a bittersweet outlook on relationships, the music business and the elusive 'one that got away.' He believes that music should be boundless, and have a familiar quality to it, because we're all looking for a different place, lost in a memory and waiting for what may have already passed you by, and doing it with an edgy-pop style.
