Brian Bergeron and The Late Greats

About Me

Brian Bergeron is an acoustic singer-songwriter based out of Boston. Though he is only twenty-two, he has built quite a reputation for himself, playing over 200 shows in the last two years up-and-down the east coast. In early 2007, he unveiled his new band, The Late Greats, which rounds out a sound that has often been compared to pre-eminent artists such as Damien Rice, Ryan Adams, and Josh Ritter. Brian Bergeron and The Late Greats constantly write and release new material, including two EPs during 2007 and is slated to record another in December. A summer spent street performing at Faneuil Hall Marketplace in Boston have planted the seeds for Bergeron to become one of the most accomplished songwriters in the area.
Recent Accomplishments: - Shared the stage with Matt Nathanson, The Pat McGee Band, Josh Kelley, and Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers. - Supported artists such as Live and Collective Soul - Semi-finalist at Starbucks Music Makers Competition - Showcasing artist at the Verge College Music Conference
