Composer Will Grega works in a variety of styles with a strong sense personal vision that blends Pop, Ambient, Lounge, World Fusion, Hip Hop, Classical, and vocal accents into unique works of wonder. His music has been commissioned for use in multimedia events, clubs, television programs (BBC, ESPN), and motion pictures.

Artist History
Will Grega produced his first fully packaged CD
in the womb, and was born with it (fully shrink-
wrapped we might add). In the 80's he first teamed
with Randy Jones to produce a rap/electronica hybrid
called "Terrorist Attack!" that hit big in Europe.
Grega's recording "Crashing Paradise" in the late
80's put rock drums behind New Age themes. Another
first! He has penned music for films as well
as BBC television productions. The 21st century
saw Will re-team with Jones to create yet another
genre: SciFi Electronica, for the audacious camp classic "Imagining Mandolins."
Will can be seen as well as heard (as soundtrack producer) in the film "Three Long Years." Will coined the term "Urban Exotica" in 2003. |
