Philadelphia alt-rock heroes Grayscale may have just shared the song of the summer with their undeniably fun, 90s rock-tinged single & video “Summer Clothes.” The track is an ode to the changing seasons in the Northeast – the long-awaited transition from sweaters to shorts & tank tops. It marks the band’s second new song of 2024, and will be featured on their forthcoming full-length album in early 2025.
“The music Grayscale has been writing is focused heavily on who we are, how we were raised, and where we are from,” says vocalist Collin Walsh. “If you live in the Northeast, or anywhere with cold seasons, you know that there comes a time every year where you swap winter clothes into storage and break out your summer clothes for the year. This annual ceremony is always associated with good feelings, stories, nostalgia, and happiness. We wrote a song about that feeling.”
“Summer Clothes” drops in the midst of Grayscale’s supporting run with emo/pop legends Boys Like Girls.
Grayscale originated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and has been actively touring and recording music since 2016. Forming an instant bond as both friends and musicians, they embarked on a musical journey that has defined their lives together.

The band has created lifetime connections with their listeners through songwriting that delves into real – life experiences and themes of introspection and personal growth.
