History

Starting out

Fin Leavell and Michael Crews asked Christopher Miller to start a band, he agreed, and they recorded a demo song, "How Could I?" at local recording studio Hole of the Pigeon.

The band quickly wrote a b-side for How Could I? and played their first show on September 23, 2001, consisting of both songs being played twice. Fin had just returned from tour with his other punk band, Against All Authority.

They booked time at a local recording studio, Hole of the Pigeon, immediately. [2]

What became of this session was their first release, Party After the Show.

Touring

Greyfield spent most of their time between January 2002 and March 2003 touring the United States. They've shared the stage with such bands as Goldfinger, Story of the Year, Taking Back Sunday, Bigwig, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Riddlin' Kids, Don't Look Down, Plain White T's, Glasseater, Atom & His Package, Dynamite Boy, and countless others.

Recording

In the spring of 2002, Greyfield recorded their second release called Soundtrack To The Summer. It is the only international release to date. Work began late 2002 on their third release, The Tito Sessions. This was released on Valentine's Day of 2003. In late 2005 work began on a fourth release, Waterfalls In Outer Space - but the sessions were all but lost.

Recent History

The band convened in 2012 to play a reunion show. They are currently writing and recording for a proper release.
