Artist History
Over the past several years, Gregory has been involved in a variety of musical projects and bands as a multi-keyboardist, composer, producer and engineer. Most recently, creative direction has focused on ambience and inner exploration. The result has been a journey into Native Heart, Electronic Ambient and Space oriented music intended to relax the listener while going on their own unique and personal journey. "Some of my influences in recent years have been folks like David Arkenstone, Peter Buffet, Richard Burmer, R. Carlos Nakai and many others who have laid the groundwork into New Age, Ambient, and Native influenced styles of music. Gregory's music includes animated and ambient electronic textures and landscapes under melodies that are sometimes light and airy, and other times reflective and almost haunting.Keyboards aren't the only tool for expression, however. "Five years ago I began playing a Lakota Indian Flute. I immediately fell in love with the instrument, and unlike synthesizers, it's limitation draws out a different kind of creativity. It's organic quality makes for a nice balance against total technology. |

Press Reviews
"Come take the journey and allow Soul Catcher to capture your Native Heart." The above statement aptly describes the "cellular" feel to this debut collection of beautifully recorded electronic and acoustic instrumental compositions. Soul Catcher by Gregory offers to the listener a uniquely personal journey of self-discovery. The music can open you to a deeply spiritual cultural past. Soul Catcher is an excellent album for inner world meditation--"don't forget to invite your power animals." -- Anne Thiel, Mountain Luminary (Winter 2000-01), Mountain View, AZ, USA ------------------- Gregory's music encourages a journey of the soul that brings to mind playful, as well as, solemn feelings reminiscent of seasons past. - N. Stetz, Boulder, CO ------------------- From the opening notes of the title track to Transformation, its infinite conclusion - Soul Catcher captures the imagination, heart and spirit with its thoughtful movements. Composed, performed, produced and engineered by Gregory each piece is a journey unto itself combined with that unique ability only the best composers possesss making an overall complete musical statement. An inspiring listen to say the least. - T. Conboy, Los Angeles, CA |
