Greg is a born storyteller and after spending the better part of 2008 travelling coast to coast across the United States, from California to Virginia, writing songs along the journey, he returned home to Alberta deciding to set his stories free, recording his debut singer-songwriter CD. The EP “Set You Free”, released Fall 2008, charted on several college radio stations from St. John’s, Newfoundland to Kamloops, B.C. It was also in light to heavy rotation on community radio, on CBC Radio 3, and several commercial stations also gave “Broken Hearted Girl” and “Pass Me By” adds and made them available for listener requests. Greg’s songs have also been featured on such programs as “Acoustic Planet”, and the program “Northern Spotlight” featured “Broken Hearted Girl” alongside releases from Nickelback and Mobile! Skopemag picked Greg as an “Artist to Watch”. By the spring of 2009 Greg was pursuing music full time, playing numerous live shows. He has captivated audiences as a soloist and with his bands, in venues both intimate as cafes, as large as theatres and festivals, performing at a multitude of events, including BOONSTOCK 2011 (on stage following A Perfect Circle).

The self-titled “Greg Wood” album released in 2009 sold thousands of CDs and digital downloads. He earned the title of being an "Untapped" artist from Big Rock Brewery. The song "Old Dusty Road" was featured on Big Rock's “Untapped” compilation CD with over 20,000 copies distributed at the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver, and at major summer music festivals across Canada. Several songs received feature play on CAR / AAA stations in Canada and USA. In 2011, Canwest Global Communications featured the song “Wake Up” on “The Playlist” available for download via major newspapers nationwide, alongside Canadian music heavyweights, Johnny Reid & Bryan Adams.
Greg’s guitar playing was acknowledged early in 2011 with a Top 20 out of 968 finish in Taylor Guitars worldwide song contest; and #11 out of 1099 songs entered in the worldwide Shred or Alive.
Thunderstruck 10, an extreme snowmobiling film released August 2011 and distributed world-wide by USA based Thunderstruck Films, features 5 of Greg’s songs: Ride On, Old Dusty Road, Born to be Alone, Little While and Razorblades. “Hope In Her Eyes” was recently chosen to be on the “AMAZING” compilation to benefit the Canadian Cancer Society, alongside songs by recognized artists including platinum artist Dan Hill.

Greg’s new album, his 3rd release, “GREG WOOD III” is now available. "It's a much bigger production than anything I've attempted before, my influences have changed and the experiences of success and sorrow over the past couple of years will all play a role in the sound of this album. I think people will be blown away, because it's not the Greg Wood they know from before…rather something bigger, darker, yet more hopeful. It's my most flat-out, adrenaline-pumping work yet."



Greg is a member of SOCAN, Songwriter’s Association of Canada, Alberta Music and Edmonton Musician’s Association.
