Hewson Grey

"Hewson Grey’s got this super-cool vibe, a complex mesh of indie, alternative, bluesy rock, and ambient psych, that, well, honestly, I think they’re one of the best bands in the city right now ”
- Michael Senchuk (New Music Michael), Music Blogger

The origins of Hewson Grey can be traced to a cold January evening in 2014.
“Through the blizzard I could barely make him out. Slender with a hat, gloves and boots, he trudged through the snow like a soldier on a mission and he was loving every minute of it”.
On his way to a jam, Joe Paonessa stumbled upon the scene above and gave Stuart Bell a lift. Wouldn’t you know it, Stu knew how to strum too. From the first couple of notes, they knew there was something more to explore.
The two shut in for the rest of winter and began crafting material. During this time new songs were arranged and the band began to carve out their distinct sound.
With the addition of drummer Ryan Crampton and Caleb Bradley on bass, Hewson Grey have revved up their live shows often times leading audiences on a mind-expanding voyage.
Every show is original and reformed with Crampton and Bradley at the helm of the rhythm. On any night you will hear cavernous guitars bathed in deep reverb and delay drenched Gilmour-esque soundscapes. At the top of their game, Hewson Grey will be releasing their debut EP, Montes et Mare on September 9, 2016.
Hewson Grey's first single "Dancing In The Rain", was released on a split 7" record alongside Tophie Davies band through Sometimes Music (June 17th 2016).
