Hailing from NYC, Hazel Gaze is comprised of veteran musicians from diverse backgrounds ranging from recording and touring to Broadway pits to formal classical training to bars and clubs - all wrapped up in rock 'n roll goodness! Blending influences from The Black Crowes, Lenny Kravitz and Soundgarden to 70s icons such as Led Zeppelin and Humble Pie, the material that would become Hazel Gaze’s debut album was recorded in Russ’ Brooklyn basement studio.
With the assistance of Grammy-winning Producer / Engineer Daniel Alba (Jack White, Tom Morello, Norah Jones), Hazel Gaze is now back with their sophomore effort, mastered by Grammy-winning engineer Oscar Zambrano (Sting, Justin Timberlake).
