Been there done that... It's all been done before... and Monkey see monkey do...Are all phrases that have pretty much rang true until now. It's been a very long time since a talent of this caliber has come along. Keith Gregory is that talent. Keith's originality and style is definitely "one of a kind".
Born in Little Rock, Arkansas, Keith woke early one Christmas morn' and anxiously unwrapped a single snare drum, a pair of drum sticks and a passion that has cast him into a musical world of his own. While in his teen years Keith made the transition from drums to guitar and began writing songs and performing with various local bands. Influences like Jimi Hendrix, Earth, Wind, and Fire, Z. Z. Top, Al Green, and others, would explain how he has bottled these various forms of music into one hell-of-a-sound. Keith's music has been described as, out there, strange, way cool and even weird, but the one phrase that everyone seems to end with is, "a style of his own". He is definitely a "play it again Sam" artist.
The much anticipated album, Hollywood and Dreamin was written, arranged, performed, produced and mastered by the man himself. The plan from the very beginning was to create a pop, upbeat, fun to play record. "I decided that no one could duplicate the sound that I was hearing in my head other than myself, not to mention the cost of hiring outside help which was financially impossible. Hollywood and Dreamin is rhythmic, funky, ballsy, very cool and also the most commercial album he has ever penned. It is absolute Keith. NO HYPE
