Grey Tower Heights Talks More About Her Music And Latest Release ‘By the Sea’

What is your real name?
My name is as mysterious as my songs and I couldn’t possibly divulge it.

What’s your official Showbiz name?
Grey Tower Heights

How did you get into music?

Write the music that you want to write, not what you think they want to hear.
