Bio

With over 17 years in the secular music industry including studio recording/production and live performance, this talented singer/songwriter has the goods to deliver a seemless soundscape of layered instumentation and soaring vocal tracks. Recently, Greg has been led to use his God given talents in the Christian market in his attempt to reach others with the loving words of Jesus Christ. As a frontman for acts including, Aldebaran, Tokyo, and Rage in Eden...Greg has a wealth of experience in creating and performing original music that blends influences such as Jeremy Camp, Jars of Clay, Alter Bridge, and Chris Cornell, among others. His current EP "Divine Sentinel" includes three fully instrumented tracks along with one instrumental track that convey the stories and emotions of our common frailties, failures, successes, and travels as we walk in this world of men and women created by a loving God. "Divine Sentinel" has been in production on and off for nearly one year and Greg has poured his heart into this project as a means of gathering the interest of Christian record labels. Greg is currently unsigned but is hopeful that an A&R representative will find something in Greg's music that sparks a desire to allow him to share his musical gifts to the world and minister God's Word to those in need. This debut EP was written, performed (with the help of a few close friends), recorded, and produced by Greg in a digital format at his home studio. Mastering was performed by Jon Stanka of SoundGruve. Inspiration was of course provided by Our Savior Jesus Christ. Greg is currently promoting "Divine Sentinel" by setting up his new web presence but has several more tracks in the can awaiting recording and production. He is always writing and plans on creating new tracks in the near future that will exemplify his love for heavier rock sounds...distorted guitars, slamming drums riffs, searing vox, and an overall wall of sonic "knock ya down cold" vibes! Stay tuned for more updates. No current shows are pending as Greg is currently a solo artist writing and producing original Christian Rock in anticipation of label interest. Keep in touch though...Greg intends on posting available show dates as soon as they are booked! Thanks to all who listen, support, and love Our Father God!
