About Me

Greg Van Houten, Guitar and vocals. Nothing wrong with being from New Jersey, you just have to understand that you're allowed to leave. Moved to Vermont in '91. I perform solo and with my friend, Cindy at local haunts, festivals, etc. I like playing original material when the scene is right. I also like playing covers that you're not expecting. George Jones to The Psychedelic Furs. Whatever works that day. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I also provide sound services for small venues including the Vermont Arts Exchange of North Bennington where I am first engineer. I've worked with The Tony Levin Band, Larry Campbell, Syd Straw, The Traum Brothers, Al DiMeola, David Lindley, Donald Fagen, Pheobe Snow, Terry Adams, Luminescent Orchestri, Howard Fishman, Cindy Cashdollar, Martin Sexton, The Wyos, Toshi Reagan, Levon, Amy Helm and Ollabelle, Paula Poundstone and many others.
