Blonde & Grey is a music group formed by Kathy Olsen and Neil Friend. From time to time, various talented guests sit in and play along.
Blonde & Grey isn't just another name in the pop-rock realm; it's a musical experience that bridges the vibrant flair of classic inspirations like Moody Blues and Fleetwood Mac with a modern sensibility.
At the heart of our music lies an innovative blend of emotive vocals and the timeless allure of the flute, creating a unique soundscape that resonates with listeners across generations.
With each song and album, we deliver a curated emotional journey, tapping into universal themes while offering something fresh and unexpected.
Our music is perfect for those who appreciate the lyrical depth and artistic instrumentation of yesteryears, yet seek the relevance and freshness of today's pop-rock landscape
It all started after a couple of years into playing together at a local weekly jam, Kathy & Neil decided to play a few songs at an open-mic that included some original songs written by Neil. After doing this for a while, we decided to make it an official duo and came up with the incredible band name: Blonde & Grey.
Okay, maybe incredible is a little over the top. The name choice is obvious to some; to others, we like to say that someone already took the name “The Beatles,” so this was our second choice.
While playing out, they worked on writing and recording their debut album "Face the Music", which includes the singles Mud Mills Road, All Day, and Gracie’s Grace.
Next up they recorded their latest album "Drifting Through The Universe".
Kathy and Neil continue to play out when possible and also perform live streaming events.
