Introduction

Hi! I'm Greg Afek. I'm a very passionate and dedicated musician of 20 years, with 10 years all along the Gulf Coast. Whether it's that song that brings you back to that certain moment or the brightness and flow of one of my own creations, I bring a unique and unforgettable approach to music. I perform nearly every genre of music, a handful of instruments, with 60 plus originals and hundreds of cover songs. Many have said my sound would equate to a melodic matrimony of rock, pop, jazz, funk, and pop folk, and enjoy my stage presence and love of the universal language we all know as music.

I found Greg via web search. I will say Greg’s web page needs to be upgraded as he is much more talented than he portrays. Greg played for my daughter and son-in-law’s Wedding Rehearsal Dinner held at McClain’s Pizzeria in Mandeville last Thursday. My family and approximately 45 guests were all impressed with Greg’s musical talent. Greg has an extensive playlist that accommodated the three adult generations present at the event and they ALL danced. Greg is professional, responded quickly every time I reached out to him, friendly with the crowd but not overpowering, and very affordable. Thank you Greg for adding to the fun of Keri and Gevin’s Alligator Themed Rehearsal Dinner!

Greg was awesome!!! I hired him to play for the cocktail hour leading up to our son’s rehearsal dinner. I asked if he could play acoustic country (we’re from Nashville) and he delivered! He then asked if we would like for him continue to play during the dinner, which was such a nice touch. He even had a couple of table singing! Everyone loved him and he was great! I wish he lived in Nashville, because I would hire him for all our parties!

We really enjoyed having Greg play and sing for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. It was hard to leave to move onto the next part of the evening because we were having so much fun! Not only did he play the songs we asked ahead of time, but he was up for pretty much anything with our on the spot requests. We would choose to have him again any day for an event we wanted live music. Live music is such a treat for guests, people really loved it! Thank you Greg for giving it your all and making our day extra special!
