About Me


Gavin Gregory is not just a singer but also a song stylist and an actor. Raised as a child in Warren, Ohio and born into a man in Atlanta, Georgia, Gavin was accustomed to hearing great soul music as a child with his Mother & Father constantly supplying the household with soul legends like Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, and Marvin Gaye. As he matured his oldest brother, a jazz musician, bought him his first instrument, a trumpet. From there his musical tastes broadened and he was exposed to great jazz vocalists and musicians such as Al Jarreau, Dianne Reeves, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Santana, and Tower Of Power to name a few. Gavin moved to Atlanta, Georgia where he dealt with aspiring producers but got involved in musical theatre as well, working in some of Atlanta’s most prestige’s theatres’ such as The Alliance Theatre, The Fox, Actors’ Express, and Seven Stages. He was then cast in Disney’s “The Lion King” and in 2006, a dream came true as he was cast in the Broadway hit, Oprah Winfrey’s “The Color Purple”. Finally he made it to Broadway! He has just released his first full length CD/Album “The First Time Around” (March 2007). It’s all about life’s situations he’s experienced, broken into three parts. Part 1. Where Is The Love: songs about questionable love, Part 2. A New Love: songs about the courtship of a fresh relationship, and Part 3. Good Love: songs about how love feels when you’re in a great relationship. Wanting to do film, stage, and music, Gavin is primed to be the next big thing in entertainment.REVIEW MY CD ON iTunes, CDBaby, Napster, Rhapsody, Verizon, etc.!!!Saveoursoul.nl REVIEW: "IT'S A PLEASURE TO HEAR GAVIN GREGORY SING."The full length album from Gavin Gregory entitled "First Time Around" is out now. At the moment of the release of this twelve track album Gavin Gregory is performing in the Broadway musical "The Color Purple" alongside Fantasia. It's a pleasure to hear Gavin Gregory sing. His vocal capabilities explain why he's been chosen to sing in the Oprah Winfrey production "The Color Purple". Soul music is being revisited on "First Time Around" which has been divided in three parts: Where Is The Love, A New Love and Good Love. Gavin brings his songs in a very natural way and very convincing. That's no wonder because together with Chukey Charles he has written all of the songs and he knows what he sings about. He also has a wide vocabulary which enables him to comunicate easily, so we'll not find any explicit lyrics on his album. Yippee! Amazing on this CD is that Gregory does all the vocals himself, it's unbelievable but it's true. If you don't know better you'll think he has a lot of background singers supporting him. The single "First Time Around" is an uptempo pop song with firm guitar playing."Money On Your Finger" on part I is a very sweet song to sing along to. You'll sing your heart out. Very catchy and groovy is the second song called "Close That Door". Funkier are the tracks "Get Into My Lovin'" and "You're Amazing" whereas the latter also invites you to dance. A sweet soul music sensation will take hold of you when listening to "Crazy" which probably will be one of your favourite songs on "First Time Around". The real soul songs are definitely to be found on part III a conclusion you will draw when you hear "Over & Over" and the bonus track "He's A Millionaire".(TA) Stand Out Tracks: Money On Your Finger, Close That Door, Take Me Under, Because Of Love, You're Amazing, Crazy, Over & Over
