Gray Sky Girls are Naomi Sommers and Lisa Bastoni, two songwriters who met on the Boston folk scene in 2004. They soon discovered they had a shared affinity for V8 juice, organic dried mango, and Bob Dylan, not to mention a love for the harmonies and instrumentation of early country and bluegrass. Their music has been called "a musical massage for the soul."
Though the Gray Sky Girls are not currently touring, their CD can be found at www.cdbaby.com/grayskygirls.
