Album Notes

Greg Osgood presents melodies that are carefully blended against a backdrop of beautiful keyboard-fingered strings and well-synced bass and drums. Reminiscent of influences such as Lionel Richie, Oscar Peterson, Ray Charles and Tyrone Davis, who first appeared on the Soul Train television series back in the '70s, His innovative music ranges from hard and romantic blues to foot-shuffling, high-energy funk and soul blues hits, all powered by an emotional live performance.

"Back To Back", Osgood's 2002 album release featured the song "The Good Is In The Man" which later went on to occupy the #1 music chart in 2007. "Never Gonna Give You Up" ranked #2, followed by Beale Street Blues at #3.
His music has been heard on radio stations across America since his debut album "Amour" in 1995. This album featured the popular song "All Night Long", the first to receive artist royalties. Though he has shared the stage with The Chilities, Bloodstone, The Delfonics, he still enjoys a surprise jam session with both local and non-local contemporaries.

Greg Osgood was somehow born into music. He remembers his mother singing to him in the womb and many of his friends still say he can remember a song forever. Not being surrounded by notable names, stars and legends, he chose the high road, receiving musical instruction at age five and went on to learn piano and keyboard. Having toured with Purple Haze in the early '80s, he was no novice to the live stage. As he broadened his musical knowledge and abilities, he began developing skills that would enable him to entertain in a way that only a true master could. Notwithstanding his vocal skills, he also writes, records, performs, arranges and produces his own music.

Though he has traveled extensively throughout the U.S., and toured several forgeign countries, he has found much contentment performing in and around Jackson, Mississippi's Malaco Records.

"Walkin' On The Backstreet", is made for when it comes down to choosing the perfect night out on the town.
