I hit my head and woke up in the 60's but I brought along some indie-rock in my pocket.

"His songs are catchy, layered, and smart... [H]is recordings exude the experimental flare of a kid with his first chemistry set. But instead of sodium carbonate and litmus powder, Gray is melding the elements of McCartney and Wilson with modern traces of Elliott Smith and Broken Social Scene. It’s only a matter of time before the kid gets signed and smooths out the rough edges in a first-class recording studio." -Ourstage.com
19 year-old Toronto singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Daniel Gray makes music inspired by folk, rock and indie both young and old. His love of 60's pop shines just as much as his love for indie rock and neo-folk. Look out for "A Future's Past" coming soon!

Remember when trouble’s lasted only as long as the story books end And pages were drawn And broken glass still reflects memories continuing Up the very same stairs
And still I wonder where did we go wrong? I laughed with you just yesterday And yet that feels so long I still sleep in the sheets we fell beneath And still I wonder what did we do wrong? It never seemed to feel that way I never was that strong But who am I to speak Were we in love for just a week
And time just stands still Without familiar smiles filling my cup to the brim As I drink it all in With pane so think, looking out to see you’re the only one Being embraced by the sun
Hey Daniel, yes, I heard some of the new Perkins tunes... can't wait for the new album. Things are ok at my end, work is kind of rough but I try to play guitar as often as possible and started working on some new stuff, this is fun. How are you? Have a great weekend!! best, Nicole
