The Music of Greg Dember

About Me

Making music is a miracle. I push some keys or pull on some strings or push air out of myself and something cool happens. When music is amplified through the channels of mega-and-micro culture, somehow small or large groups of people can feel like they share something that would otherwise be private. That is Magic.
My newest project is finally just called "Greg Dember". It feels more streamlined this way, rather than having a band with its own name. I can perform on my own, or with any different combo of the amazing musicians I'm fortunate enough to know. In terms of the music I've recently recorded, it is fairly diverse in style.... the one thing that holds it all together is ME.
I have released (August 2008) a 12-song CD, called I Don't Know I Think I Fell From The Sky on my own Hieronymus Records label. See the blog, above, for ordering information.
The CD is produced by Matt Brown (Trespassers William) and features notable contributions by drummer James McAlister (Sufjan Stevens) and multi-instrumentalist Leon Dewan (Dewanatron, Flaming Fires, The Happiest Guys In The World).
I have some other myspace music sites: Previously, I've fronted CHIEFLY and co-fronted Lavish Cat and I'm currently an organ-playing sidekick in Tim And The Time Machines .
Please listen, link, and share!
