“Amazing!!! We hired Greg for the hotel's Grand Opening event and he was absolutely amazing, definitely one of the highlights of the event. Guests enjoyed it, complimenting Greg and his talent.” -Aliya A. Director of Sales, Hilton Homewood Suites, Downtown Austin.

Greg Despins is a one-man-band who uses looping and effects pedals to make his guitar also sound like drums, bass, and keyboards. He layers these different parts together live and then sings and plays lead guitar on top of that, which is an entertaining art form on its own. Greg performs regularly at CU29 Cocktail Bar downtown and also hosted the open mic night at The Parlor for the last 1.5 years. His sets include mostly 80’s, 90’s and modern pop cover songs with some country, r&b and blues mixed in. He can play small intimate venues by dialing back the volume and singing with a more lounge type vocal…or...crank it up and get people dancing in small and large venues. Some people are very much entertained by just watching him play all the different parts to each song live with the loop pedal. Greg is getting great reviews playing gigs around Austin where he creates a larger than life atmosphere at different clubs and events.
