Bio


GreyMarket is an independent rock band hailing from Tampa, Florida.

Influenced early on by the likes of Radiohead, Muse, and Led Zeppelin, and drawing equally from their mutual love of science fiction, drummer Michael Gargiulo and guitarist/vocalist Cave McCoy set about creating their own brand of modern rock music.  The pair utilized electronics to add sweeping strings, buzzing synths, and pounding sine-wave bass to their arsenal, crafting a larger-than-life sound.  After writing, recording, releasing, and subsequently touring in support of four albums as a duo, the band invited longtime friend and fellow Tampa music scene veteran Mark Allen to join the band on bass guitar, along with up-and-coming talent Madison Keels on violin.

With this additional firepower, GreyMarket has doubled down on their killer live shows while retaining their commitment to self-sufficiency, all backed by a fundamental compulsion to get the job done right.

The band is currently nearing completion of their most ambitious record to date, a space opera entitled "The Echo Relay."   A grand concept years in the making, the record compiles a range of tight, distinct songs that, together, form a coherent story arc of a record. After all, every great song should tell a great story, and inspired artists ought to create inspiring art.
