I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

The Pro Jam @ the Joint with Gregg Wright, This Tuesday!


"KING OF THE ROCKIN' BLUES!!!"
The Pro Jam @ The Joint, This Tuesday Night!
Greetings friends, musicians and music lovers! I invite you to come out this Tuesday night November 30th, for the second Pro Jam @ the Joint. Located at the corner of Pico and Robertson in West L.A. Last week's jam debut was fantastic, with a host of great musicians dropping by to play, including top notch Bluesmen Phil Gates and the great Coco Montoya. So come with your "A" game, because the bar's been set pretty high and you never know who might drop in for a play! The Gregg Wright Blues Band with Ron Battle (bass), Stormin' Norman Weatherly (keyboards), Craig Kimbrough (drums) and yours truly on guitar & vocals, will kick off the first set. The Joint has a great atmosphere, great food, reasonably priced bar drinks and a very nice staff to help you have an enjoyable evening of food, fun and music.

"KING OF THE ROCKIN' BLUES!"
GREGG WRIGHT'S "PRO JAM @ THE JOINT" STARTS THIS TUESDAY!!
This Tuesday night, October 23rd, I'll be hosting the newest and hopefully, best pro jam night in town. "The Jam @ the Joint" will be a weekly event, held at the Joint on the corner of Pico and Robertson in West L.A. All musicians are invited to participate. *Come in and sign the list to jam. All equipment and sound will be provided. We ask for a $5 donation from everyone, players and listeners alike to help offset the cost of gear and sound. The donation also gets you a free bar drink. Sounds like a win/win to me. Great club, great atmosphere, great food and great music with an emphasis on creativity and excellence. I really hope we can usher in an exciting new era of live jamming in L.A. and folks having a great place to meet up and hang out!
