"Hobbs boasts a wry eye for detail that sets him waaaay apart from the pack."
Ben Rayner, Toronto Star.


 


Hamilton-born Greg Hobbs has established himself in Toronto's folk/roots music scene with honest and entertaining lyrics that bring out the beauty of blue moods and the humour of seemingly dark situations. He is a treasure of a songwriter.

Hobbs's newest CD. "Thunder and Dust" co-stars Darcy Yates on bass, and Christine Bougie on Drums, guitars and keys.

With his musical musical collaborators, Hobbs has developed a fresh sound fusing folk and country with even a little hint of jazz.

He currently lives in Toronto, where he was named one of the “local must-sees” by the Toronto Star. He was also nominated for an Toronto Independent Music Award

Hobbs has played with shows with uber-troubadour Fred Eaglesmith, Canadian alt-country diva Carolyn Mark, The Cash Brothers, Erik Andersen, Odetta and others.
