Payne's Grey Sky

The seed that eventually became American-roots band Payne’s Grey Sky was planted in the summer of 2007 by high school friends Rich Dymond (bass, guitar) and Jimi Scheffel (vocals, guitar), with Dave Sahloff (drums, percussion) joining the band soon after. In 2021, the band was fortunate to recruit Arnold Richter (keyboard, accordion, vocals).

Payne’s Grey Sky’s influences are many – from classics like Dylan, The Band, and The Rolling Stones to contemporary acts like The Lumineers, Dawes, and The Avett Brothers.

Over the years, Payne’s Grey Sky has lovingly donated their time for local annual fundraising events, including YWCA’s Tunes for Tots and The Rosemary D. Gruner Memorial Bike for Cancer Care.

Payne’s Grey Sky has played at a number of local venues throughout the Hudson Valley and released their debut CD in June 2015. Since then, Jimi has continued to write new songs that the band performs during their live shows. We hope to release a new song or 2 at some point during 2023.
