“Gray Smith opens the night of music.

Immediately the guy shows total unity with his electro acoustic guitar. ‘When I Reveal’ is the third in his set, and by now his unique vocal style and restrained but energetic playing style are beloved by the crowd. The six-string really seems to be a direct musical extension of him, while the mic seems a natural asset rather than additional amplification. The strength of his own lyrics is admira

ble and his playing style is certainly engaging. If you want to see how to get the most sound from an electro, look no further. No real mic manner though as he prefers to let the songs talk for themselves. Closing the set with ‘Sweetgirl’ shows a funk dexterity...”

“As Gray Smith reached the stage and sat down with his guitar, first impressions would normally lead to an assumption not befitting to his compositions. Starting unannounced, he rocked out with a down-tuned grunge number that immediately set a high standard for the rest of the night. Without the backing of a band, songs such as this can feel hollow and ill-thought; however Gray Smith provided a well rounded sound with immaculate guitar playing and voice that holds control and attitude in equal amounts.

People who end up isolated are usually the ones who stand up to toxicity.

While abusers stay protected by people who enable, and support their behaviour.

Survivors get labeled as the problem, while the person(s) who caused the harm gets comfort and cover.

The neglect is perpetuated, and the survivor remains a victim.
