Description
'Elevation', Tony Grey's fourth solo album, is a stunning collaboration with a who's who of guitar and musical greats. It features the amazing Mike Stern, fretless guitar legend David Fiuczynski, Whitesnake's Reb Beach, Japanese star Hotei Tomoyasu, and finally, Tony's illustrious uncle and guitar legend John McLaughlin, who contributes a new and never-before-released composition that he penned for Chick Corea.
Tony wrote six of the songs on 'Elevation', also arranging his own version of "Some Day My Prince Will Come" featuring Fabrizio Sotti, along with the funky "Chick's Chums" by John McLaughlin. The album also includes David Fiuczynski's arrangements of Eddie Harris' "Freedom Jazz Dance" and Miles Davis' "Solar".
Born in Newcastle, the bassist Tony Grey now resides in New York and has played with the likes of Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Mike Stern, Hiromi, Zakir Hussain, Branford Marsalis and John McLaughlin.
