In the past, Gray has taught percussion and music technology courses at McGill University, been a member of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company in New York, given recitals in Canada, the United States, Europe, and South America, performed with numerous orchestras (including the Montreal Symphony and the National Arts Centre Orchestra of Canada).
