Doc Rock band spotlight: The Grey Scrubs

The Grey Scrubs are raising funds for the Division of Medical Education.
Don’t miss the fourth annual Doc Rock “battle of the bands” event at the Soul Kitchen in downtown Mobile on Thursday, Jan. 30, 2025. The friendly competition helps support research and critical clinical needs at USA Health. 

At least one member of each of the five bands has an affiliation with USA Health or the Whiddon College of Medicine. The Grey Scrubs — made up of fourth-year medical students Danner Butler, Connor Martin, Cade Smelley, Will Smith and Matt Watterson — are raising funds for the Whiddon College of Medicine's Division of Medical Education. 

The band unofficially formed in 2021 during a couple of afternoon jam sessions. Taking on the name The Grey Scrubs, the group decided to make it official to participate in the Doc Rock battle. 

The band's bio describes their sound: “A high-energy group with a classic rock feel, The Grey Scrubs stand united by their love of music and are ready to challenge the mighty Doc Rock competition, hoping to end their final year of medical school with a bang.”
