Based in the South West, Greg has built a strong reputation as a songwriter and performer over the last few years. His 2017 album “A303“ was widely acclaimed for its highly original songwriting and rich lyrics dealing with many aspects of the human condition in modern life. This gig is part of his latest album tour: “The State of My Hair“.
“An intoxicating musical and lyrical cocktail of Al Stewart and Ray Davies, infused with his own unique brilliance as a guitarist and songwriter, Hancock mines memories from childhood to middle age, from hanging out with fellow teens playing at being grown ups drinking Thunderbird wine to seeing the creases and marks slowly appearing in the mirror.
Reflective and wistfully melancholic, but suffused with the warm glow of a life lived, his songs speak of lessons learned, hearts broken, people lost to time and of dreams that refuse to fade with the years. It may be very personal, but the feelings and experiences strike universally recognisable notes.“
