Shoegaze? Emo? Post rock? Alternative? Grunge? Does it matter?

Truthfully, what  is a label anyway? Does a genre really matter? Who really stays in one lane? Why would you even want to do that?

With those questions out of way, Glossing started at the end of 2020 when Case Graham (vocals and guitar) and James Hoffer (guitar) were hanging out on Case’s porch and decided to start a band. The original plan was to start a more traditional shoegaze band and to look for other members based on that. Within days of that meeting, Taimir Gore (guitar), Zak Bryant (bass) and Sage Maxwell (drums) agreed to join. The newly formed band had their first practice in January 2021 and spent most of the year writing, finally playing their first show on December 13, 2021 at The Camel in Richmond, Virginia. 

In 2022 some more shows were played. Some more songs have been written. The studio happened. 

Fast forward to May 2023. A self titled EP was announced to be released on July 14, 2023 on Fisher King Records. The future looks bright. Let’s see what happens from here.
