Gravy
Gravy is the culmination of four distinct views of musical appreciation. Since forming in 2004, Gravy has quickly climbed the ranks of the New Orleans music scene, providing a mix of styles and genres that satisfy the most sophisticated palette and has cemented the band’s place in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast music scene.
You may have caught them on WWOZ , playing the French Quarter Festival, at the late night shows during New Orleans’ Jazz Fest, or rocking out at any number of local clubs and bars, such as Tipitina’s and The Maple Leaf
Gravy recently released their first studio album, Said & Done, which was recorded at New Orleans’ own Piety Street Studios, collaborating with such icons as revered producer Mark Bingham, Ben Ellman of Galactic, and Corey Henry of The Rebirth Brass Band. Along with praising reviews from local magazines, Said & Done has become a local favorite, seeing extended air play on radio station WWOZ, which is widely known for it's loyalty to maintaining a rich musical scene in New Orleans.
Along with Said & Done, Gravy can be found on the Southern Comfort “Start The Music Up” Compilation CD, a tribute to New Orleans Musicians, alongside artists such as Galactic, Cowboy Mouth, Professor Longhair, Jon Cleary, Theresa Andersson, The Rebirth Brass Band, and Johnny Sketch & The Dirty Notes.
Gravy has also been featured in Relix Magazine, in the regular “Listen Up” section.
From Jam to Progressive Rock to Rhythm & Blues to Jazz to Bluegrass, Gravy's mission is to touch and enrich the soul. Individually, the members of Gravy are four musicians with individual talents, but the band is more than a sum of its parts. Together these musicians form a group that transcends genre and style and always leaves the listener wanting more.
