Download our Building

CDBaby is now carrying our latest song, BUILDING. It's offered as a standard MP3 that you can play on pretty much any player - no DRM!

Here's the link to BUILDING at CDBaby.com:

...an alternate link is:

CDBaby has just started allowing artists to sell 'singles' as downloads - without having to post an entire EP or album to do it. So we got right to work to get it up there for you.

Here's the song description from the site:

"With a slice of introspective '80's vibe, analog synthesizers embrace dissonant chords and low bass, guitars crash in reverse, drums crack, the vocalist cries...the soloist saws against the bricks, stacked high on the downbeat."

What do you think? BUILDING, out now, at CDBaby.

Thanks for listening!

btw - If you already have Building - thanks for supporting our music, and please pass the new links around to friends who might like our song!

No News, Good News?

Is no news good news?

That is how we sometimes feel while checking out local broadcast news (often filled with death and destruction). No thanks.

In our case, we have little to report this week. Two songs out of the five have made some small progress - less than we'd like. These 2 are 95% written and all the delays are in the musical arrangements, and the recording process.

Meanwhile Alan worked on some tech stuff in the studio, while trying to improve his drum sound (there's always room for improvement in just about any endeavor). And we got some UPC data worked out (because we don't do it much and so forget) for the next releases. And if we lost you on the last point, then you know how we felt doing it ;-)

And that's it; the week flew by...

Beta Napster has Gravity Tree prog rock

Anyone check out the new Beta version of Napster? For the most part, we like the new layout, especially the darker color scheme (for those who care ;-o). btw they actually pay artists for downloads now - it's completely legit these days.

Anyway, you can find most of our music there. We say 'most', because the new downloads like Building are exclusive to other sites, like our own webstore.


So if you like to get your music from Napster, be sure to check us out over there.

Okay, back to the studio to work on those new songs...

Sometimes you can't get back

Sometimes you just can't get back into the studio...


Besides trying to finish taxes (!), last week found me working out a few ideas for our upcoming video.


Gravity Tree is also working up some new T-Shirt designs which just might see the light of day this time around ;-)

All these tangents, of course, were necessary, if not always well-planned. Back in the studio we go once again. Hint: the next song's acronym is FTWHC...we'd like to hear from any of you on what that might stand for. Until next time...

More Guitar, please

A short entry this time, as things are quite busy at Studio192. Guitar tracking continues for the new songs, and Alan has been working up charts for more upcoming recordings.

There were also talks concerning a new video, work for which should be getting underway next month. More on this and the new songs in an upcoming newsletter...that's it for now.

Download Interference

In this week's update, we wanted to mention that we recently added our 8 minute+ song (epic?) "Interference" to the Gravity Tree  downloads now available at the Boost Independent Music shop. (The song Interference is originally from the album Ultimate Backward .)

We're a featured artist there as well. You can find us easily, by choosing "progressive" from the "browse by music style" menu on the site's main page.

In addition to the music-in-progress, Gravity Tree has been updating their pages at ReverbNation.com. We've been steadily climbing the charts over there, which is a little strange for us - even appearing on charts. We'll try not to get too popular ;-)

For those on spring break, we hope it's happy (and safe!)...and our fans on our mailing list can xpect the April newsletter soon.
