Greg has done hundreds of concerts, private parties, restaurant and nightclub gigs and weddings over the last many years to rave reviews. Here'a what a few of his fellow musicians say: "Greg Smith has a warmth to his playing and his sound that is unique. His phrasing caresses you like a hug from an old friend." --- Chick Corea "Greg is a great guitar player; he's got great technique, fabulous ideas, and his sense of timing is right on the mark." ---Larry Coryell From Greg: "I play acoustic steel string, nylon and electric guitars. I l love playing, it's my favorite thing to do. I can play all kinds of music; standards, jazz and pop tunes, bossa-nova and Latin, folk, new age and blues to name the main categories. I know 100's of tunes and I can play non-stop for hours. All you need to do is let me know what type of music you want to hear and I'll do the rest. I can create the perfect atmosphere for your wedding ceremony and reception. I also play for private parties, corporate functions, art openings and museums. Instrumentals are the main focus of my performances but I can sing and have many standards and pop tunes with vocals if desired. I look forward to giving you the perfect music to create the atmosphere you desire." My best, Greg Smith Greg is very dedicated to what he does. He wants to deliver the best experience for everyone. He has an amazingly big repertoire of musical styles and songs! There is something for everybody :) Greg is also very professional and effective and punctual! I like that! He made our birthday party special! Thank you! Rosie F.
