Nashville, TN  There is as much space within us as without. With their debut album Fragments, Nashville band Gentry Blue soars and plummets in both directions equally, through debris fields of matter and emotion, to show how each space echoes the other. From the extra-galactic dread of “Collide,” through the self-stretched existentialism of “Fragments,” to the defiant positivity of “Cutthroat,” Frontwoman Lydia Gentry-Debonis becomes an oracle of emotion over the crushing instrumentals of Brendan Gentry-Debonis and Sean Jannay. Co-written by all three band-members, masterfully produced by Jannay and mastered by Colby Gustafson, the album is sonically satisfying as it is compositionally excellent. With Fragments, Gentry Blue takes its place as one of the finest progressive art rock bands in Tennessee.
