Xero Gravity met while all performing in a program called
Rockit. In the Rockit Program, kids ages 8-16, who pass
auditions, participate in a seven-week group program
where they learn a specific repertoire of songs, supplemented
with individual instruction. Around forty-five young
musicians divvy up to form separate groups who together,
at the program’s end, perform in concert replete with
high-production gear and lighting at the legendary Count
Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ. That’s where it all began.
From there, side projects were formed. Jack and Alex
formed a band called Noise Pollution who exploded into
the rock scene playing venues like the Stone Pony and
the Wonder Bar. Steven was also in a side project doing
the same in a band called Reverse Evolution. When there
were some creative differences within each of the bands,
these friends came together to form Xero Gravity and
are now the perfect heavy hitting rock trio. They all
gelled and are now like brothers. They are making a
name for themselves at a rapid pace in the New York/
New Jersey area. Alex with his face melting guitar solos,
and Steven with his hard hitting, effortless drumming
and Jack who is not only musically talented but charismatic
and draws everyone in. Their songs have catchy riffs
and leave you wanting more. They are influenced by bands
like Kings X, AC/DC, Type O Negative, Rush, The Misfits,
and Slayer to name a few. They have a unique hard rock/metal
sound that people respond to. They have already played
numerous venues like The Stone Pony, Crossroads, The
Court Tavern and most recently The Starland Ballroom.
Keep your eyes and ears open for Xero Gravity. You will
be hearing about them for years to come because they
are doing now what most bands try do for years and they
are barely teenagers! They are Xero Gravity and nothing
is gonna hold them down!!!
