Greg is a vocalist who sings faithful renditions of timeless classics from legends such as Neil Diamond, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, and others. Greg is an artist that lets his impressive vocals do the talking rather than trying to mimic every physical trait of the these legendary artists. If you are looking for someone who sort of looks like, sort of moves like, and sort of sounds like the artists then Greg is not your man. But if what you want is someone whose vocals are powerful and spot on...then look no further. His rendition of Neil Diamond and Frank Sinatra classics have been bringing audiences to it's feet for years.
What sets Greg apart from other vocalists is the fullness and resonance with which he sings. There are many good vocalists singing Sinatra, Neil Diamond, and Johnny Cash but precious few can match the sheer power which Greg brings to these timeless songs. These legendary artists had rich, resonant voices which other singers try to compensate for with vocal acrobatics and electronic enhancement, but which few vocalists have naturally. Compared to Greg, listening to other vocalists sing these songs is like being at a disco without sub-woofers. It's the low end and resonance that adds an authentic feel and gravitas to the performance...and no amount of clever vocal impersonation can convince you otherwise. But Greg will make you believe.
He does concerts, weddings, corporate events, private parties, and other functions. Here is a summary of the different types of shows he performs.
THREE TIMELESS VOICES – This show highlights the music of Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond, and Frank Sinatra. Many of the biggest hits of each of these Timeless artists are brought to life. It can be constructed to go from a 2-set, 90 minute show all the way to 3 sets and 3 hours.
50 YEARS OF NEIL DIAMOND – This is a three-set, two-hour-plus show covering the amazing career of Neil Diamond. The audience always gets engaged in singing along to many songs. Singing Neil Diamond is how he got started entertaining and this is still his favorite show to perform.
20 YEARS OF NEIL DIAMOND – This show is a chronological review that can be presented in one or two sets. In the shorter version of this show he utilizes medleys of some of Diamond's songs from the first 20 years of his career (which produced the majority of his hits).
