After years of touring and performing around the world with various bands, vocalist Jerry Roush, the former frontman for Sky Eats Airplane and Of Mice & Men, has joined forces with 8-string guitarist Joshua Travis [The Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza], bassist Travis Sykes and drummer Chad Hasty to create GLASS CLOUD.

Musically, Glass Cloud offers a sense of controlled chaos fueled by Roush's deep, ferocious growls and distinct, gritty cleans. Travis' phenomenal guitarwork and ability to constantly surprise listeners stands out as he displays the perfect balance between energetic, driving intricacies and calmer progressions that carry a dark, eerie tone.
Sykes and Hasty, who have been friends since age 16 and both attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA, rule the rhythm section contributing unique cadences and swinging, jazzy grooves interlaced with softer symphonic touches.
Glass Cloud shines as the members deliver some of their heaviest and most technical compositions to date.

The Hampton, VA-based band recorded their debut full-length album at Lambesis Studios, in San Diego CA with Joshua Travis also serving as producer.

"This debut is nothing less than absolutely Storming!" - Big Cheese

"With a set of tunes this accomplished behind them as a first off and on a label as cutting edge as Basick, I'd be entirely surprised if the band's future wasn't bright" - Hit the Floor

"For fans of 8 string guitars, colossal melodies and forward thinking heaviness" - Rock Sound
