A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH

Straight out of Cleveland, the birthplace of rock 'n' roll, Gravity is causing quite a stir with their energetic and engaging music. Their live shows continue to receive rave reviews from the progressive rock community.

The band has already opened for world-renowned acts such as Dream Theater, Symphony X, Kamelot and King's X, and they have won numerous competitions in Cleveland, including the Live Nation 2007 High School Rock Off at the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame where they placed first out of over 200 Ohio bands. In 2009, they performed at the Three Rivers Progressive Rock Festival (3RP) in Pittsburgh alongside some of the most well-known US prog bands.

In 2007 they released their first CD entitled Into Oblivion, and they are currently getting ready for the release of their newest CD Midnight Sonata in 2010.

"The band kicks ass for their ages showing style and maturity. I had to do a little research just to check that what I'm hearing here is for real because the production is top class. A bright future is ahead of them..."

- Fireworks Magazine (UK)

"Their talents, the enjoyment they express in playing live to their audiences, and the connection they have with each other onstage shows their professional talents. They will be heard from in a big way in the future."

- Howard Levy (3RP Productions)

"...[The band] tackles a style of technical prog-influenced instrumental hard rock that's never been mainstream except in music stores packed with aspiring Satrianis. Even more astonishing is that the band approaches it with sophistication well beyond its years."

- Free Times Magazine (US)

"These guys are killer! Best opening act of the tour!"

- International act KAMELOT

Amazing musicians! So impressed... totally blown away!"

- Live Nation 2007 High School Rock Off Judge

"This band is just crazy... I don't watch many bands before I play my own gig but I couldn't take my eyes off the stage when they rocked the house. Thanks guys!"

- Casey Grillo, drummer of KAMELOT
