“Goin’ Gray” is a four-piece acoustic group of seasoned musicians with nearly 150 years of combined performing experience. The group was formed just two years ago when Len Thomas (guitar, harmonica, & vocals) met Dave Slavic (vocals, percussion, & guitar) at an open mic night. Len’s son, Lenny (guitar, sound, & vocals) was brought in shortly afterward. Ron Desantis (bass & vocals) was the last member to join. Goin’ Gray has a growing fan base in Lake and Ashtabula counties…

Inspired by the melodic lines and two-part horn voicing of the legendary quintets of Art Blakey, Cannonball Adderley and Horace Silver, Swingbone breathes fresh life into jazz standards and cool blues grooves from Ohio’s north coast to Traverse City, Michigan.
