Greg Smith on SoundBetter

Chick Corea--"Greg Smith has a warmth to his playing and his sound that is unique. His phrasing caresses you like a hug from an old friend."

Berklee College of Music Alumni
I have studied/performed with 20-Time Grammy Award winning guitarist Pat Metheny, legendary Chick Corea, 25-Time Grammy Award winning pianist, composer, Grammy winning artist Edgar Winter and jazz guitar master Larry Coryell, to name a few.

I have been a composer for almost as long as I've been playing guitar. I've written several classical pieces and hundreds of jazz and pop tunes.

I work regularly as a session player and arranger and I've arranged and performed on 30-50 projects.

I have opened concerts performing solo guitar or with a band for: Diana Krall, Brian Wilson, Issac Hayes, The Moody Blues,Chris Botti, Jonathan Butler, Tuck and Patti, Tony Bennett, Harry Connick Jr, Steely Dan,Kenny Loggins,and Rob Thomas

"Greg is a great guitar player; he's got great technique, fabulous ideas, and his sense of timing is right on the mark. Larry Coryell

    Greg is not only an extraordinarily gifted guitarist, but he is also a wonderful music arranger. I have worked with Greg on a number of music albums, and he has always come through with unique and multi-textured musical arrangement that take the songs to new levels. Highly recommended!
