Reality Something

The Vaudeville Mews presents...
Reality Something is the joint effort of Elena Franklin, Kingsley Brock, Ethan Place and Bill Grasely, and is collectively based in Nashville, TN. Their self-titled EP, fronted entirely by Franklin and released in 2015, demonstrates a strong kinship to alternative rock, and the front women present therein. This is especially true lyrically; Franklin confesses and observes in diary-like fashion, as stark, honest and deliberate as the genre she typifies. Though new, the arcs here are clear and fully realized, the documentation relentless and explorative, with Franklin already prolific in her own manifestation of the DIY aesthetic. The additions of Brock-- who for his part as lead guitarist, leans toward the warmer, expressionistic nature of 70s rock-- and Place and Grasely (drums and bass, respectively), heavily significant in balancing and emphasizing their counterparts-- come together to culminate in an outfit both that is timely, nostalgic, and vital.
