The Gravel Project
Spring has sprung
Spring is finally here, and we just want to acknowledge what a great winter it's been with shows. We did 8 weekend runs to NH and Maine this winter, and had a total blast playing for y'all and connecting with lots of new people. We appreciate everyone involved, and want to extend a big thanks to all our friends, family, fans, and the venues who book us. Between the release of our new album in February, lots of radio play in MA and NH, and a bunch of killer shows, we're feeling great momentum! Please help us keep it going by spreading the word, and tell someone you love about The Gravel Project... and keep an eye on our calendar, as we'll be adding a bunch of Summer dates soon! Oh, and pick up a copy of our new CD if you haven't yet already! (or stream it free on Spotify) Speaking of the new album, here are a couple nice new reviews:
