Greg Coulson is a multi-talented British musician and engaging singer-songwriter, whose work covers classic rock, quality pop, blues, funk, and jazz. His sold-out show at The Bear last May was legendary and went down as one of the gigs of the year, so we just had to get him back for more.
In 2018, Greg released his critically acclaimed debut album, What’s New?, coinciding with appearances at various UK festivals. Outside of his own recording career, he has worked with legendary US songwriter Burt Bacharach and other successful artists, including Morcheeba, The Blockheads, The Selecter, Lilly Moore, Tom Grennan, and Sway. He is also a member of the rock band Spiritualised, who recently toured America opening for Queens Of The Stone Age.
A noted talent on both keyboards and guitar, Greg’s heart lies firmly within songwriting and draws inspiration from his heroes: Steely Dan, Randy Newman, Little Feat, Ray Charles, Booker T, and Dr. John.
Greg and his band have long been favourites at The Bear and are sure to deliver an unforgettable live performance that tugs at the heartstrings. It’s a rare opportunity to catch the band up close in an intimate setting.
Support tonight is from the excellent Thea Watson.
“A polished performance, blending jazz and bluesy tones throughout, a Saturday night work out for the enthusiastic crowd”
“A worthy debut… as an ensemble, Coulson’s band displays the tightness essential to handle the passion and timing of his thoughtfully arranged songs”
