Apocryphal Times EP
A collection of folk-rock odds and ends I wrote and recorded in April-May 2020 during the early lockdown phase of Covid-19.

It’s unlikely that I’ll release this officially, so sharing here for posterity. Enjoy.
Twin Signals
This six song album was recorded in 2020 between Atlanta, GA and Northeast, TN by my brothers, Adam and Vincent Gray.

New Track: Neon Nitehawk
Around 2009, a new generation of music producers, many of whom were not alive during or were too young to remember the 80s, revived many of the production aesthetics of early synthpop and dreampop. Variously labeled, “Chillwave,” “Glo-Fi” or, my personal favorite, “Hypnagogic Pop,” it was really nothing new: a sort of dreamy, fabricated nostalgia involving detuned … Continue reading New Track: Neon Nitehawk
