Greig Mourton's sound is refreshing in its honesty. Sometimes Blues, sometimes Folk, but always soulful. Sometimes political, sometimes deeply personal, but always heart-felt and poetic. Passionate singing and melodic hooks combine with insightful lyricism, bringing a real depth to his acoustic style.
Greig began his musical life as a drummer in a Heavy Metal band, but after years of touring the UK he felt musically unsatisfied. So one day he swapped the drums for guitar, packed his bags and set off to see the World. Since then Greig has experienced many different cultures and places, and become more deeply involved in political activism. It was these experiences that shaped his music and gave him the passion for song writing. While living in Mexico, playing his songs on stage for the first time, he realised that music is a truly inseparable part of his life.
