Artist History Greg Strickland is a thirty-three year old singer/ songwriter from Seattle, Washington. Greg has been playing bass guitar for twenty years. Once purely a rock bassist, Greg has expanded into the role of an all around musician; singing, playing guitar and piano. Over the last ten years he has been concentrating his efforts on writing, recording and producing original compositions. In 1994, Greg starting building the Virtual Image studio to support the documentation of his work. His latest CD, Teal Blue Sea, a collection of adult-contemporary, rock and folk songs, is the first release from this studio. Greg performs all of the guitar and bass tracks as well as most of the piano tracks on this CD.
