Three Vancouver musicians, Eric D'Alfonso, Patrick Harper, and Damon Steele formed 'a grey medium' with the intent of composing and engineering a project
that would blend their varying musical influences."The objective was to join the alluring female vocal tonality of acts like Zero 7, Portishead, & Morcheeba with diverse soundscapes ranging in
comparisons to Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, & Nine Inch Nails."The band began developing their own sound, which consists of a solid groove foundation mixed with minimalist, and often almost ethereal guitars and
expressive vocals."We love exploring 'brighter' vocal melodies layered over what could be considered 'darker' than usual arrangements. The tonal property of the female
voice tends to add sweetness, which can work to counterbalance the darker instrumentation that we are typically drawn to.Once the lyrics and arrangements were complete, the group held auditions and happily named Kelli Stewart as vocalist. Soon after, Kelli relocated from Toronto
to Vancouver, contributing her warm, expressive voice to the group. The band then began recording and arranging what would become their debut EP entirely on their own. The band has since released the EP and it is available for
download on iTunes. The band has performed live on numerous occasions in support of the EP with such highlights including performing two shows at this
yearʼs Junofest. The band is currently working on recording a new full length record.
