Meet Gravity
Patrice Hegel
(Lead, Harmony vocals and Percussion)
Patrice has been playing a variety of gigs in and around the Jersey shore. Prior to joining Gravity, she was involved in an acoustic folk/rock project; focusing on lead and harmony vocals, and adding percussion when necessary (which came in handy with no bass player and no drummer!). She's been around the music industry for years, gaining initial vocal experience and musical knowledge in a ten year career as a production coordinator for two Manhattan jingle houses.
