San Francisco has always been the home of free-spirired musicians. The Summer Of Love started here amd the city played a crucial role in the development of thrash metal. The local scene is still thriving there with bands like Neurosis, Giant Squid, Black Cobra and Deafheaven being the pulse of everything experimental and cutting edge. Another great outfit is Grayceon who just released a brand new EP, entitled Pearl And The End Of Days. Raymond Westland had a very friendly chat with vocalist/cellist Jackie Perez Gratz. She talked candidly about the new EP, how becoming a mother has changed her outlook on life, and her music career and many other things.
