Biography:

"Gravity Tree is one of the more interesting progressive bands around... their material bears a stamp of currency, yet also features the conceptual ideals of classic progressive rock." (Exposé Magazine)

"...definitely punches a hole through the more established forms of Prog and creates their own sound." (USA Progressive Music)

Gravity Tree releases include albums "Life or Dessert?" and "Ultimate Backward"; appearances on several compilation CDs, including the notable Bay Prog disc, and "A Very Progressive Christmas", from Melodic Revolution Records. Their latest singles are "Building" and "Threes Too (Remastered)".

Gravity Tree is currently in the studio, at work on new music.

Press:

“score: 9.8/10 "No Rest Part III starts off the album with some beautiful liquid keyboard sounds exploding into an interesting guitar section which glides into the vocals effortlessly...Interesting and well sung vocals. "Aim to Please is more vocally driven but again the most impressive thing is the production. The guitars and keyboards work together so well with some great playing and a wild guitar solo... "Interference starts off very cleverly with some weird sound effects working well with the "squashed" vocal sound and baritone guitar...It's hard to pinpoint their influences and this is a good thing as they don't sound too much like anyone in particular especially with their use of sounds and production. "Motion Sickness is very clever indeed...explodes into a fantastic solo piece and a great epic sounding outro. "...A very thought provoking album by a duo who definitely punches a hole through the more established forms of Prog and creates their own sound."”
Mark Elliot - USA Progressive Music

“Gravity Tree is one of the more interesting progressive bands around...Their material bears a stamp of currency, yet also features the conceptual ideals of classic progressive rock. Their influences likely include Zappa, Happy The Man, Van der Graaf, and Gentle Giant, which they assimilate well as they explore new musical territory; most of the songs are long and labyrinthine, and rarely settle down into a pattern for very long...Familiarity with Ultimate Backward will require a few repeated plays, but over the haul the listener will be rewarded. This is a solid second effort. (Review of "Ultimate Backward")”
