The Gravel Projects Releases – Find What You Need

The ten song album is a blend of Blues, Rock, and Soul that spans from 70’s psychedelic to 90’s Rock sounds. “We certainly are influenced by the spirit of The Allman Brothers, Tedeschi Trucks Band and Santana, but there’s also real funk and soul backbone to everything on this album too that draws from bands like The Meters and Little Feat.” Says the band’s founder, Andrew Gravel.

The album was recorded at Power Station New England, a world-class studio modeled after the iconic Power Station/Avatar Studios in New York City. The sessions were led by Grammy-winning producers John Paterno (Gov’t Mule, Bonnie Raitt, Robben Ford) and Greg Ogan (Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Kelly Clarkson). The players on the album features Andrew’s brother, Jordan Gravel, on Hammond organ and keyboards, along with Dave Fox on drums, Eguie Castrillo on percussion, Jen Kearney on vocals and Jesse Williams on bass. “The majority of the album was performed live, with minimal overdubs, and the result is that the record really captures the essence of our live sound. In the end, I think we captured the live essence of the band, and that’s a special thing because I do think we are a live band at our core.” Gravel continues, “Find What You Need” is our 4th studio album but in some ways it feels like we’re just getting started.”

“Find What You Need” was written by Andrew Gravel and focuses on the topic of relationships, personal growth, and inner peace. “The album is a personal exploration of the complexities of growing and maintaining healthy relationships. The way they shape us, challenge us, and teach us about ourselves. All the songs are woven together with a common thread that captures the highs and lows through themes of love, trust, remorse and reconciliation.” Says Gravel.
