About Me

Greg In The Middle is a singer-songwriter project that goes from intimate acoustic honesty to burning rocksongs. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------- We recorded the Ep 'Believe' live @ the Buster in Antwerp with a band that had never played together before with just 2 hours of rehearsing prior to the show. These tracks can be found in the audioplayer. You can get a copy of this Ep by sending me an email. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------- The second gig was an acoustic session @ the Blue Olive in Hasselt with a different line-up. The same principal of 1 rehearsal and than playing was kept and the track 'Message in a Blue Olive' was drawn from that show. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------- Greg In The Middle is able to play solo acoustic concerts or as combination of 2, 3 or 4 people. Just contact me if you like what you hear !!! ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------- I'm curious where the long and winding road will take me ! ------------------------ Greetz, Marco aka Greg In The Middle
