Videos by American Songwriter
ARTIST: von Grey
SONG: “Forever Bound”
HOMETOWN: Atlanta, Georgia
CURRENT LOCATION: Atlanta, Georgia
AMBITIONS: To create music that has a personally cathartic effect for me as a creator and that can also translate into an emotional piece of art for listeners/consumers.
TURN-OFFS: Too much treble.
TURN-ONS: Watery production with a lot of depth, nice reverbs and delays, bass, spiritually in-tune and socially aware lyrics.
DREAM GIG: Playing the first concert on the moon, set would include a duet with Prince.
FAVORITE LYRIC: Changes everyday, but currently I am thinking about “If you break these moth wing feelings, butterfly knives in the ceiling, well everyone’s waiting. Detachments get praised and completed. You can say what you want and not mean it, when no one really seems to be waiting. If you sweep up this mess I’ve created, nothing’s left to show I existed…” – Modest Mouse
SONG I WISH I WROTE: “Last Goodbye” by Jeff Buckley
5 PEOPLE I’D MOST LIKE TO HAVE DINNER WITH: Frida Kahlo, Anne Boleyn, Scott Cunningham, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Prince.
MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: Nas’s set and Bjork’s set at Bonnaroo.
