THE GREG SMITH BAND

About Me

Greg has played with many local bands aorund the area of Springfield, ohio as well as Southern Ohio, and from California, Texas, and Florida. Straight, clean country Telecaster pick'n is his favorite style, but can adapt well when other styles are needed. At the time being, Greg is just helping out as needed with local bands. Spending more time in the home studio and time with the family has gotten more important later in life to him, although Greg will play out again sometime soon on weekends perhaps, the amount of playing will be limited.
