Brothers Aaron and Christian Ankrum form the core of Grayshot. This alternative pop band, joined by drummer Reese Kling, has been busy steadily crisscrossing the US and parts of the UK/Europe as well as writing and recording material (their first full length album Stay/Go was self-produced) in their Minneapolis studio. Their songs are a rare hybrid of indie depth & heart with a large-audience ready sound that has already landed multiple placements in TV shows and documentaries for MTV, FOX, E!, FOX Sports, Buick and others.

Having honed their live sound while supporting international bands The Boxer Rebellion and Citizens! on their respective US tours, Grayshot has become a formidable live band that consistently wins over new fans and delivers for returning audiences.

“a soothing, richly layered bundle of polished pop rock.”
-Michael L. Walsh, CityPages

“An unsigned band that’s something special.”
-InTune Monthly

An Alternative-Pop group based in the Midwest, D. CLEA is Darien Clea, Caleb Block, Matt Fritzler, and Ryan Westeren. This collective’s road as a band has, from the beginning, been defined by their disregard for the normal way of doing things.

Some artists write from skill first, setting boundaries along the way so that when it comes time to perform the song, it’s something they can actually pull off. For D. CLEA, however, the songs are dreamed up first, and it’s not unusual for them to step into the practice room and find the songs have grown taller than their capabilities. This “creativity first, logistics later” mentality, and the hours of practice it demands, is what gives their music its polished, innovative sound, and it also happens to be the reason they didn’t release a studio album until their sixth year of playing music together.
