GRAY
Gray is an American experimental band formed by artist Jean-Michel Basquiat and filmmaker Michael Holman in 1979, of whom filmmaker Vincent Gallo was also a member. The group was influenced by the members' artist backgrounds and the sonic experimentation of their contemporaries in New York's no wave scene. Gray performed at venues such as the Mudd Club and CBGB, which were the epicenter of New York's underground scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The original Gray lineup never released a record, but the band recorded music that was used in films, including The Radiant Child, Downtown 81, Blank City, Downtown Calling, and Basquiat. Gray was revived in 2011 by original members Michael Holman and Nick Taylor.
