Jacksonville, Fla.-based Grey and his band formed in the 1990s, released their debut in 2001 and have since put out six studio albums and one live collection spotlighting their mix of horn-laden, soulful rock and heartfelt ballads.
Mofro will be the lone band at the Ridgefield date, a change from the co-headlining status they’ve shared with Blues Traveler on a 11-date tour that runs through August, having been rescheduled from 2020 due to the pandemic.
The band last played the state in 2019 when they made stops at Infinity Hall in Hartford and two days later at The Katherine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center in Old Saybrook. The concert was filmed for the CPTV series The Kate. This marks their first Ridgefield appearance since 2017.
