The Grays were a short-lived rock band from the United States, formed in 1993 by singer/songwriters/multi-instrumentalists Jon Brion, Jason Falkner, Buddy Judge, and Dan McCarroll. Their formation began when Jon Brion contacted Jason Falkner after hearing a mixtape he had compiled featuring Odessey and Oracle by the Zombies. This led to an informal jamming session with Buddy Judge and Dan McCarroll, which caught the attention of a music executive and resulted in a record label bidding war. The band signed with Epic Records.
The Grays released their debut and only album, Ro Sham Bo, on February 22, 1994, accompanied by the lead single, "Very Best Years", which received minor radio play and a promotional video that aired on MTV. Despite positive reviews, Ro Sham Bo was a commercial disappointment and went out-of-print. Internal tensions led to the band's breakup shortly after its release.
