Emphasizing the breadth
and richness of traditional American song, Greg's repertory draws from
diverse sources: old- & new-world
ballads, cowboy songs, play-party songs, bluegrass & country songs,
19th century parlor & minstrel songs, hobo ditties, sailor
shanties, Carter Family & Woody
Guthrie songs, novelty songs, blues, work songs, spirituals, and a
smattering of material by
contemporary songwriters with a strong sense of tradition. He also
performs rags, fiddle tunes, and other instrumentals.
The list provided below is not complete, nor should it be considered
fixed and static. On the contrary, Greg is continually
revising and expanding his repertory as he discovers new material,
absorbs new influences, and conceives new shows. And true to the
folk tradition, you are not
likely to hear a song performed the same way twice.
