listeners from across the musical spectrum.

On his 2001 " SHADOWS IN LIGHT " CD Grey explores the cross- pollination of styles that influence his music. From the explosive light of the opening track "Love Changes Everything " to " Before The Storm ", through the hopeful insight of
" Leah ", "SHADOWS IN LIGHT " tells of the many shadows that life, loss, and learning casts - while never loosing sight of the light.
