Based out of Madison, WI, Gladstone is a fresh band of 5 musicians whose paths have been intertwined in one way or another for over a decade. Gladstone's Adult Alternative/Contemporary Rock sound has evolved over time from their early years, when they were named "Photopsia". When they enjoyed regional success as Photopsia, the sound was firmly rooted in complex, textured songs with open, experimental songwriting. Today, Gladstone's songs give a mainstream, radio-friendly voice to the earth, the sky, time, love, and life. Lyrical topics filled with images of nature, struggle, endurance, memories, and home reach out to anyone in the human experience.
Gladstone's sound is a unique hybrid of John Mayer, Toad the Wet Sprocket and Vertical Horizon. The new songs on Paper Sky are well-crafted with addictive melodies and strong vocals. Tight bass-lines and percussion are layered behind rich tones of guitars and keys. With a broad appeal to contemporary rock fans of all ages, the future is bright for this up and coming Madison band.
