The Grey Matter

5 piece cover band (Townsville), pop/dance & rock music from 1960s - 2010s - strong 80s/90s focus

This 5 piece Townsville outfit will take you back to your youth as they play some of the best and most memorable radio & pub rock songs predominantly from 70s/80s & 90s. Choosing songs that are not just standard fare for the covers scene, they offer a welcome departure from the “Same Songs, Different Band" prevalent in the pub rock market today. The Grey Matter will have you up dancing and singing

Thank you to everyone who came to support us as one of our original members, Colin, played his last gig with us at Townsville Rsl on Saturday night after 10 years with The Grey Matter.
We are saddened to see him go, and cannot thank him enough for his contributions to growing this small mad family of sorts. We all remain good friends and wish him well on his next adventures. He will be greatly missed and we’ll be sure to catch up again. After all, nothing is really forever…

For the rest of us…

we’ll have a big announcement very soon…😉
