Bittersweet Descent, based in Westchester, NY, was formed in 2022 after various collaborations brought its musicians together. Currently comprised of Mark Grossman, Jamie Altieri, Pat DeBallonia, and Michael Calle, the band’s primary focus is crafting and performing original, genre-busting, high-energy material with which any audience can instantly connect. Live shows are peppered with covers of alternative and classic rock bands, along with folk-rock, country, and punk covers. BSD just headed back to Woodside Productions in Peekskill, NY, and recorded sixteen new songs that will be released throughout the spring, summer, and fall of 2024. Between December 2022 and April 2023, the band, with drummer Jesse Weiss, recorded a six-song EP at Woodside Productions. That EP, entitled Clarity, is currently available for streaming on all platforms. In 2022, Grossman released six singles as a solo project, all of which are available on streaming platforms under his name and Bittersweet Descent.
