us that Chart Attack is reporting in an article the status of the ex-members of Grade. Three of the five members are now playing in former side-project band Somehow Hollow. They group has been around for a while now, started as a side project by Grade guitarist Brad Casarin with members Mike Casarin, Kent Abbott and Drew Clark. They put out a self-titled album in May of 2001 on Toronto's East End Industries. Eventually Mike and Kent also joined Grade and put Somehow Hollow on hiatus. Somehow Hollow have signed with Victory Records. Their first album for the label is tentatively titled "Busted Wings And Rusted Halos" and is due in early 2003. In November the band will tour Quebec and Ontario, click below for the dates.
