This Thursday, May 28th! Join us as we welcome back to the stage!
Born and raised in St. George’s, Newfoundland, Greg’s musical journey began early—he picked up the guitar at nine, and by sixteen was already performing bass and vocals in local cover bands. Greg’s professional career took him west to Saskatchewan and Alberta in the 1990s, where he toured extensively with country bands.
Over the years, Greg performed on upright and electric bass at festivals, theatres, arenas, and awards shows; playing with artists such as Amos Garrett, Chad Brownlee, Ian Tyson, and Charlie Major.
In 2018, Greg reunited with longtime friends to form Black Mountain Whiskey Rebellion as bassist and co-songwriter. Their self-titled debut album featured the single Holy Smoke, highlighted by Rolling Stone Magazine in July 2018.
Inspired by writing trips to Nashville, Greg penned several songs honouring First Nations soldiers, including Never Coming Back From Vietnam, which has been remastered for Greg’s latest album entitled ‘Writing on the Wall.’
Beyond the stage, Greg is committed to mentorship and cultural storytelling. He has been a proud adjudicator for the Juno Awards and has served as a virtual instructor and mentor for Inuit and northern First Nations youth through Connected North. Today, while easing back from the rigours of touring, Greg continues to write, perform solo shows, and prepare new music releases. Greg is passionate about giving back to the music community and passing on his knowledge to the next generation.
