"C. Greene" is a Hard-Bop Jazz Pianist, Funk Keyboardist, Composer, and Producer.
This highlyintuitive musician was born in Detroit and grew up on the West side, where his love affair with the piano began assoon as he could crawl up on the bench. He was steeped in the old-school gospel music of the church as a child and thenspent his teen years studying the recordings of the masters of Jazz, Blues, and R&B, leading his own band ( Jazz Prophets), andsneaking into the bars and lounges of the Motor City to listen and learn from the "Old Cats". His youthful tenacityeven enabled him to meet John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk backstage at Cobo Arena in 1966.
He has toured with several Motown acts (the Spinners, 4 Tops, Jimmy Ruffin), and also worked with Richard "Groove" Holmes, ErnestineAnderson, Laura Lee, Marcus Belgrave, Jerald Daemyon, and many, many others.
Currently, Greene is producing music projects, playing solo, and free-lancing with Jazz, Blues, R&B, and Reggae bands in the Midwest and South Florida.
