Professionalism and good music delivered with pride and passion. A good connection with audiences, flexibility and patience.
We played music together for years, and enjoyed every minute of it. But time passed, and we drifted away. Until that day when we got back together for a jam session, and enjoyed every minute of it.
We recorded it. When we listened back, we looked at each other and said – “Hey, this might be something special.”
And so it was. And so we became the Grey Street Band.
We cover rhythm and blues, pop music, blues, and anything that keeps it fun. We play and work with a passion, professionalism and pride in our work, and our art. We enjoy every minute of it. And we want you to enjoy it with us.
Grey Street is available for special events such as parties and receptions, corporate events, restaurants and entertainment venues, and any similar events. We’re a five-member band – two guitars, keyboards and key bass, drums, and a lead vocalist. Below are video clips, recorded live in two of the venues we have played at several times.
Thanks for listening and watching.

Technical Requirements
Our requirements are pretty simple.
At the minimum – we need normal USA house power (110 volts, 60 cycles, on a
10-20 amp circuit), and a reasonably adequate space to set up – as small as 15x10
(150 square feet), and up from there.
PA – we have an excellent, self-contained PA that will cover a small to medium
rooms quite well – up to about the space of an average hotel ballroom. For larger
spaces (such as larger outdoor events), we can easily connect to larger PA
systems.
LIGHTS – we have stage lighting, even “bells and whistles” such as fog effects!
SETUP TIME – Our minimum setup time is approximately 30 minutes, and our
minimum teardown time is about the same.
Thank you.
