Born in Scotland, Greg started
his musical life at an early age taking lessons, first on
the piano aged 5, and then on the cello one year later. |
| |
| After studying cello at the Royal Northern
College of Music, Greg started freelance work with a number
of different orchestras including the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic,
the Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, the English National Orchestra
and the Performing Arts Symphony Orchestra. |
| |
| However, during his time in Manchester Greg
had also been leading a double life, working both as a singer
and as a writer and producer of pop music. |

In November 2000 he performed at the Rugby League
World Cup semi-finals in both the Reebok and McAlpine stadiums and
appeared on BBC1's Grandstand, singing 'Land of Hope and Glory'
before the England game. |

| |
Winning a competition run by Manchester's Key 103
radio station resulted in the opportunity to sing one of his own
songs, "Something More", in front of 11,000 people at
the Manchester Evening News Arena in July 2002. |

| |
At the end of 2003, after a friend put his name forward
for the auditions, he won the M.E.N. 'Search for a Star' competition,
held at the Willows in Salford and, as part of his prize, he performed
at Manchester's Bridgewater Hall in May 2004. |

In the studio, Greg has worked with many different
acts and artists, including 'Stars in their eyes' winners, 'PopIdol'
competitors, 'X-factor' finalists, Miss Scotland (the 2nd Runner
up in Miss World 2002!), model Michelle Marsh, and cast members
from 'Coronation Street' and 'Emmerdale'. |
