Grand Prize Winner of the 2005 Monterey Bay Blues Festival's "Battle of the Blues Bands!"

"One of the most innovative guitarists of our time...!" - The 2002 International Guitar Festival of Great Britain. Gregg's CD "Lightning Strike" is now No 2 in the Blues Direct top 10 list.

Meet Gregg Wright . . . master guitarist and musician, who strings his guitar "normal" right-hand fashion, but plays left-handed upside down ( that is . . . with his high E string on the top!), awesomely! Firmly schooled in the Blues Masters of the past yet confidently moving ahead, he takes you on a soaring whirlwind of musical / guitar expertise. Watch, listen, and be one of the many converts!

This fantastic American guitarist boldly transforms his guitar into a sonic palette of emotions, colours and pure sound, as is clearly demonstrated on his new "millennium blues" CD, "Lightning Strike!!!" He's a player's player, a highly skilled composer and record producer, possessing a soulful expressive singing voice. An electrifying live performer, Gregg once nearly upstaged Michael Jackson during a show, when he served as Jackson's lead guitarist. Certainly, no easy feat!

Gregg began his professional career on the U.S. Southern circuit, opening for Blues legends, such as Albert King and Freddie King, receiving firsthand knowledge and encouragement from both elder Bluesmen. Now one of America's elite guitarist / session men, he's featured soloist on the soundtrack of the new Giant-Screen IMAX film, Ocean Oasis, with the Prague Philharmonic. Gregg's won awards, he's recorded albums and toured with such great artists as, Mick Fleetwood, Michael Jackson, the Gap Band, Spencer Davis, and many more. Rarefied company indeed, yet, none of this gives a hint of his true musical power and magic!

Now... with guitar, voice, and a new CD, Gregg Wright is set to take centrestage of the New Millennium’s musical frontier, with his very special and personal musical vision.

Welcome... to the Blues in the 21st Century!
