PROFILE: The archetypal boy-next-door, Greg left his Baltimore home to become a latter-day San Francisco folkie. But like numerous ones before him, he proved that folk and rock don't have to be mutually exclusive, and began plugging into Buddy Holly melodies and harder rock guitars. After years of touring, a few Bruce Springsteen covers along the way, Greg finally hit with a song that sounded a bit like they used to write 'em!

BEER: Boy Howdy!
