Debut Album: released this Winter

About Me

Welcome to GMF Music - music from myself, Greg Floyd as a solo artist. I'm 22, I come from Leicester but have lived in the Warwickshire town of Rugby for the last 18 years. I'm a semi-professional musician and I got this page going mainly for exposure and promotion, and I wanted the world to be in touch with my musical happenings. So, here I am - joining the millions of bands and artists on myspace, praying for 'that lucky break'. This year will hopefully see the release of my debut album, 'Circles of friends' (see the latest 'album news' blogs). Generally I don't gig as a solo artist, but I lead worship groups both at my work and Church communities, and of course my band 'Serenity' - in my top friends! The blogs on this site will contain the latest news and updates from GMF Music. Enquiries & comments welcome.
