The retired lead singer and backup guitarist of Grey River, Weston Grey has been a musician since the American Civil War when he was turned by a southern Belle with that all too familiar taste for human blood. Over the years he has always kept his last name but every few decades he would adopt another first name to avoid suspicion by officials when he traveled the country. He continued this trend in both World Wars when he was drafted as a radio man. After returning home he continued to live as a musician, ultimately starting the all-vampire band Grey River in 1973 with friends he’d accumulated during the wars they were in.
When the vampires went public in 2014 the members of Grey River hid their savings, prepared legal documentation and broke their contract with music mogul and band manager Dom Sneese by exploiting the contract’s death clause. The party was over and the band broke up to go their separate ways in search of their place in the uncertain world. With the truth out about vampires Wes took to using his real name again, went off the grid and traveled the country up until September of 2016 when he bought a new high end RV and set it up to be a radio station on the go.
Deciding it was time for a change of pace Wes packed up and headed west driving from Orlando to Lake Harmony, Iowa to see what all the hubbub was about. The man behind the late night satellite radio show Nocturne was coming to what was becoming ground zero for vampire advocacy. He’s always on the lookout for music with soul, regardless of who or what the performers may be. Weston has a substantial amount of money saved up from the span of his lifetime but he doesn’t flaunt it, his RV is his only major splurge in the last couple hundred years or so.
