Greg Joy
Canadian guitar player/producer Greg Joy was born in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. His love for the folk music of the British Isles led him to the Victoria Music Conservatory in the late '70s to study classical guitar. He has performed with a myriad of both Celtic and worldbeat groups, and has released numerous collections of Christmas and Celtic music of his own.
Performing in various groups focusing on the Celtic jigs & reels and traditional folk songs, he developed his unique acoustic guitar style which utilizes open tunings and is based on a synthesis of folk, classical and light rock influences.
Greg Joy has performed extensively with guitar, flute, mandolin and hammer dulcimer, always maintaining a thread of 'folk_baroque' influence in his work.
Greg owns his own record company with artists such as Mary Anderson (Celtic Healing), Lori Pappajohn (Celtic Harp Of Dreams), and Magical Strings (Legend Of Inishcahey). Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
