Preston Grey is a 3 piece progressive acoustic rock combo from Dallas, TX. Formed in late December of 2002, they have gained an impressive following in a relatively short amount of time. The key is perhaps their approach to writing and performing.

notes

Preston Grey is a 3 piece progressive acoustic rock combo from Dallas, TX. Formed in late December of 2002, they have gained an impressive following in a relatively short amount of time. The key is perhaps their approach to writing and performing in general: engaging music performed without pretense. Their clean style is immediately pleasing to the ear, due in part to their use of minimal instrumentation (vocals, acoustic 12-string guitar, bass, and drums). As a trio, each performer has space to step forward from or slip back into the mix by balancing rhythmic complexity as well as dynamics. Solos of a conventional sense are all but absent - replaced by moving melodic lines passed from musician to musician. The result is an evolving sound-scape that immediately captures your ear and continues to hold on tight.

  • A rising star . . .

    I hope that this CD is only a taste of what is to come. The arrangement of the pieces on the CD lead the listener on a journey of the senses. You can both hear and feel the emotion that Preston Grey put into each and every piece. Looking forward to the next CD.... Keep it up guys!

    For those of you who have not taken the opportunity to purchase PG's debut CD, Sideways, your missing out on a real treat of great tunes...From the CD cover and design to the host of 14 amazing songs, this album is like a great vintage wine, it gets better and better everytime I listen to it. Do yourself a favor and pick one up while copies still last...

  • This CD totally rocks!

    Sometimes you purchase a CD and you might like 1 or 2 songs, but Sideways, by Preston Grey totally rocks. The entire CD is greatness! I highly recommend buying the CD. It also makes a great gift. I bought it for several friends who were unaware of Preston Grey and they loved it. I enjoy the CD however there is nothing better than hearing them live! You can find their show schedule on their website.

  • Great Cd

  • David McGarry's prowess on the acoustic guitar is nothing short of God-Like

    I wasn't fortunate enough to see the likes of Dave Matthews or Jack Johnson when they were cutting their teeth in the clubs and smaller venues... I have, however, been lucky enough to see Preston Grey at that stage and I'm blown away by them. It won't be long before this band will be held in the same regard as Dave or Jack.
