City Sleeps is an alternative rock band from from Atlanta, GA. The band started touring nationally in an attempt to build interest in themselves. City Sleeps was contacted by the producer John Feldmann, asking to work with them. Before securing a label, the band flew to L.A. to work on a new album, ‘Not An Angel.’
With a full-length completed, the band next filmed a video for the song ‘Prototype’ with Nathan Cox and Zach Merck who have directed videos for HIM, Queens Of The Stone Age and Marilyn Manson. The band returned to the road when they were contacted shortly thereafter by Trustkill Records.

Not An Angel was released on October 9, 2007, after being pushed back from August 28, 2007.
On February 4th, 2008, they announced the departure of bassist Brady Allen, effectively becoming a 4 piece band. Due to the departure of Allen, Milo switched to bass.
City Sleeps is now on tour with Drowning Pool & Saliva. City Sleeps just filmed a new video in Los Angeles for the song, “Not An Angel”. The track is getting played on Sirius as well as local stations in California.
On September 5th, 2008 they announced the departure of lead singer Elliot Sharpe. They are currently on a hiatus as they search for a new singer.
On September 12th, 2008 Milo announced that he too would be leaving the band.

    Woah, is all of this bad talk about Ely true? How can a man with such an amazing voice not take his career seriously?

    I've just heard some of Yumi Conduct demos - what the hell is that? http://www.myspace.com/yumiconductband And Ely's voice sounds totally cracked...even with Pro Tool manipulation.

    Sleep With Me is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. This band reminds me a bit of 30 Seconds to Mars, I'm not sure why.

    I'm thinking we should call Ely "Michael Jackson" from now on (or Bubbles, since he lives in one). Oh how he wishes he was that successful... but instead he just takes the drugs like MJ apparently did (I'm guessing Michael wasn't as addicted as Ely though). He needs to realize he won't get anywhere by just using and manipulating people, telling lies to get money for drugs. Watch him go from girl to girl, bandmember to bandmember until they realise what he's like and then get away. The boy needs help - or else he will end up like Jacko.

    do you really think there's no chance City Sleeps getting back together? I think this would be very sad,because I've just got to know he music and think they're very great..

    Well, I have to disagree. If you don't expect anything from Ely, then he has nothing to manipulate you with, so he would never keep you around him. He basically wants people around that he can manipulate out of money, gear, adulation, etc. And Adriel hates this guy more than I do, so I don't ever see City Sleeps getting back together.

    Oh by the way, Elliott Marsh Sharp aka Ely Dye lives at: 2351 Atoka Drive Marietta, GA 30060 Since we're using our real names now, Elliott, to try and defame each other.

    fixing the shit hole up...and I bought you food and paid for Ali's gas because you stole all her hard earned money every pay period. This is fun for me, so keep it coming Ely. P.S. nice move having "Greg" write the entry, the grammar is actually bareable from the usual...um.......um....masterpiece ellipses usage your blogs and emails usually contain. Notice how everyone on this board (before I even posted) was talking about how you're a scumbag pile of dog shit. No one likes you... Let the drama ensure.

    BAHAHAHA - Look at you Elliott, having your new "band mates" write down a bunch of bullshit about how I am the fucked up one. You're so pathetic and you can't even see it. Me begging you for drugs? LOL - how about the money you begged me for all the time so you could buy more coke? You're such a scumbag it's not even funny. Everyone knows it and you'll never get another band going ever. Look at what Aaron wrote about you, not to mention your former bandmates that knew you for 9 years. I think it's funny how you rip me off for more money after I moved out of your house because you effectively conned me into believing we were still friends. This is posting about me and my girl is hilarious. You're such a piece of shit it's hilarious. It doesn't matter though, cause you'll be dead from a drug overdose before the year is over and then no one will have to listen to your bullshit ever again. I think it's hilarious how I lived in your house "rent free" when I spent over 1000 dollars...

    A day in the life of Jared Grey, aka “Jent”: (*while living for free under Ely’s roof at the band house, and never as an official member of a band with Ely*) 1) wake up at 6am or stay up all night. 2) take pain pills (that he would constantly beg for throughout his stay, threatening to leave if he could not find a steady “hookup” through Ely). 3) lock himself in the room allotted to him by Ely. 4) sit around, do nothing. 5) take more pain pills. 6) sit around with his girlfriend, who was also part of this deceptive agenda, and never participate in any music related activities without a SERIOUS amount of persuasion. 7) stay high throughout the day. 8) along with his girlfriend, continue to bug Ely for marijuana and other narcotics connections (for which Ely turned them down, ultimately leading to their decision to leave). 9) do nothing all day but what was in his own agenda, while scamming Ely for thousands of dollars in free rent every month. 10) take more pills.

    A day in the life of Jared Grey, aka “Jent”: (*after leaving Ely’s house and “quitting” the band of which he was never officially a member*) 1) spend $3,000 to move to another residence in Atl. 2) call Ely and continue to bug him about getting specified narcotics for him and his girlfriend, for which Ely continued to turn them down. 3) ask Ely on numerous occasions if he would be interested in being the singer in his solo project (to which Ely responded that he would be absolutely interested if the conditions and circumstances were cool). 4) continue to harass Ely’s friends for drug “hookups”. 5) tell Ely that he would never say anything derogatory about him publicly (at this point, as far as I know, Ely still believed that he and “Jent” were on good terms).

    When it comes to this cat, watch out for what he is doing and saying, because he is obviously a scam artist and had no intentions of any musical endeavor whatsoever and has not spoken the truth in any sense in any of his posts left on this site. It’s obviously an attempt to reach out at another failing side of the Atlanta music scene, and it’s shameless. Thank you, Greg

    Yo.. I had the pleasure of staying in the "band house" for a week back in feb. I was really excited about working with Ely after listening to city sleeps.. City sleeps is one of the best bands ive ever heard in my life. Its a shame that ely has to be such a fuck face. Based on city sleeps and the 30 demos most people have never heard and will never hear i would have traveld coast to coast to be in this band... Then i met Ely... Man Anything Jent says is the ultimate truth.. Jent was living in the house(shit hole) when I was there.. Him and his girl friend were really great people and i wish you guys the best! Thanks for hooking me up with the smoke!.. its the only thing that kept me sane around all the insanity and coke runs with ely.. I took a 4am drive with Ely around Atlanta honestly that was good time. Thats about it.. Sry, but Dont trust Ely for anything. I would love to see him on that show intervention, it wouldnt work for him but it would be fucking hilarious! Love, AH

    Eh, man, don't feel sorry for me. I appreciate the gesture, but life goes on. There are a lot of positive things happening in my life, it just is unfortunate that Elliott is wasting his talent and pissed away City Sleeps' future. I played a show with them back a couple years ago, and it was quite something to watch them on stage. However, I can be the first to tell you, the band will never get back together. I mean for Christ's sake, my nickname for him is Captain Destruct-O because he literally destroys everything and everyone he touches, which is kind of an interesting contrast from his ability to create amazing vocal melodies.

    Actually, I've just read it and after everything that has been said about Ely Dye before (for example, here http://tinyurl.com/loyl3e ), I'm not surprised at all. Although I feel sorry for Jent because he moved from Florida to Atlanta, just to have his dreams crushed. So Jent, if you're reading this, I wish you good luck and hope you never stumble upon someone like Ely again.

    Ok people, check it - Ely Dye, aka Elliott Marsh Sharp, aka Fuckboy Extraordinaire, aka ProTools Vocalist, aka Crackhead is the worst human being alive. How do I know, you ask? Well, my name is Jent and I played drums in his latest band, Yumi Conduct, for about 6 months and the guy is the most drug addicted, psychopathic, sociopathic, manipulative, delusional, and the list goes on and on human being ever to lived. I moved from Florida to Atlanta to play in his band and everything started off alright, but then low and behold once I had moved into the band house, he turned in to Mr. Hyde shitting and pissing in bottles, jerking off on my bed with my girlfriend's pictures on the bed, etc etc. And much more. Let me give you all a break down off a typical day in the life of this piece of shit.
