Greg
Keyboards and Vocals
A classically trained pianist schooled by Fagan Teverbaugh maestro CSO, now deceased. Greg gave up at the age of 14 to pursue the blues on Rush Street in Chicago, where he met with the likes of Sam Lay, Grammy award winning drummer for Howling Wolf, Muddy Waters and Bob Dylan.
Greg played with Sam at the House of Blues and other venues in Chicago. Afterwards he was asked to play with “EAT A PEACH”, a notable Almann Brothers tribute band. They recorded two full length original CD’s that put him on a tour opening up for Santana, Roger Waters, Wallflower’s, Trick Pony, Blue Oyster Cult and many others. Greg wrote half of the songs on two CD’S, “Turbulence and Thunder” and “Bound to Shine”. After the demise of EAT A PEACH he settled down and just played with various bands and solo performances.
He is now devoting himself to a new project, the band “Vital Tribe” where he enjoys playing with members of extraordinary talent which also motivates him to expand the musical journey of his life. The main goal is to perform and make the audience happy. He feels that the band “Vital Tribe” and every member can satisfy that goal.
