GREG BONHAM
- Vocalist
The Las Vegas Sun said " the blonde
Aussie has brought new excitement to the
strip...there is a new star in town."
Greg's soulful singing style crosses from R&B to
Broadway and even showcases his classical
training with a touch of Pavarotti. His Trumpet
playing displays a blazing style , his superb
range has been compared to Doc Severenson and
Maynard Ferguson.
Over 150 TV appearances in Australia, TV
Specials in England and selling over 14 Million
records in the Former Soviet Union are just a
few of his accomplishments.
Greg has opened for Jay Leno, Joan Rivers,
Don Rickles and Dom Delouise
and now headlines his own show.
