Bio
Thanks for stopping by the Leigh Gregory MySpace page. Since there are now at least five MySpace sites that feature my projects just wanted to let you know this is the space that features songs from the two acoustic CDs I've recorded: "Rest Your Weary Head" (Green Fuse 2003/2009) and "Rainy Season Never Ends" (Green Fuse/Vollwert-Records Berlin 2007/2009). Of late I've been writing songs for a third solo acoustic CD tentatively entitled "From A Flat Inside the Fog," which I hope to finish this year. At the end of 2009 my first electric solo CD "1973" (Green Fuse/Vollwert-Records Berlin) was released and there is a MySpace up if you want to check that out (do feel free!!!!). Additionally for you Mellow Drunk fans there are two sites currently up and running for that band, as well as a site for Memory's Mystic Band, which is the current project you can find me playing with. Memory's Mystic Band had their first single released in October, 2009 on Edition 59 and we are currently working on our first full-length..... ---------------------------NEWS------------------------------- "1973" Released November 2009.... My first solo electric CD "1973" was released by Green Fuse Records/Vollwert Records Berlin in November 2009. "1973" is the CD I've wanted to make for years. It is a story/concept CD (twelve songs for the tweleve months of the year) that takes the listen through one year (1973) in the life of Luke, a teenager growing up in the 1970s. Part fact, part fiction, pains and joys of growing up back in the 70s. The CD has sold out rather quickly but will be back in print soon. Order from iTunes or get the CD in the US from Not Lame: ..http://www.notlame.com/.. or in the UK from Heyday Mail Order: ..http://www.heyday-mo.com/.. .... ..Memory's Mystic Band: Limited Edition single on Editon 59 Records.... Editon 59 Records released a three-song limited editon single by Memory's Mystic Band in October, 2009.
