DISCOVER: Black Note Graffiti

Music
Shelia Taylor
December 23, 2023

Introducing Black Note Graffiti, a quintet hailing from Michigan comprising Kris Keller on guitar and vocals, Gabrielle Bryant on vocals and keys, Kurt Keller on drums, Rick Ortiz on vocals and guitar, and Adam Nine on bass.

Known for their relentless commitment to evolving their sound, Black Note Graffiti persistently challenges expectations, merging the beautiful and the brutish to craft a twisted yet harmonious sound.

Releasing their debut album Volume I in 2013, it was followed by Volume II in 2017, and in 2020, the EPs Volume III Fall and Volume III Rise, collectively known as Fall and Rise Volume III, showcased the band’s growth in sound.

Black Note Graffiti‘s infectious appeal has been honed through years of relentless touring across musical landscapes across the US. Their fusion of hard rock with alternative rock led to a rather brilliant cover of “White Rabbit” featured on Volume III Rise EP. The cover is sharp, meticulously crafted, and undeniably infectious.

With Black Note Graffiti standing on the brink of the release of their latest album (date TBC), their sonic evolution will continue with Josh Schroeder at the production helm. As the anticipation builds for their upcoming release, Black Note Graffiti‘s distinctive sound promises an exhilarating journey, enticing listeners into a realm where boundaries are challenged, and a harmonious equilibrium between the beautiful and the fierce is artfully achieved.
