Little over a year after their breakthrough debut EP ‘Leaving,’ Philadelphia rock/pop-punk outfit Grayscale still feel like they’re just getting started. “Growing up, we were unified through our own set of issues we all had and over the past year, seeing our music impacting kids and helping them through similar situations… that’s the thing I love more than anything about this band. And we feel like we’re just getting started” proffers vocalist Collin Walsh. In reality, writing and performing the songs was equally therapeutic for the band themselves, as bassist Derek Parker adds; “We’re more comfortable and confident as people and musicians. We’ve really learned why we picked up instruments as kids and why we want to do this.” With influences such as Brand New, Jimmy Eat World, and The Starting Line, songwriting is an integral craft for the young five-piece; “The new material is the most lyric-focused and diverse we’ve written, all while remaining deeply personal to us,” states guitarist Dallas Molster.
