Led by frontman Toby Cregan (formerly of Skegss), alongside Zar Harper and Louie O'Riordan, GREH recently released their second single, the DIY gold of 'Think Less'.
According to the media release, the Northern Rivers-based GREG make music that 'gives equal parts nostalgia and self-doubt, mixing coward rock and pancake punk'. At the project's heart lies friendship, a bond that motivates the purest passion – creating to connect.'Think Less' follows 2024 single 'Subaru'. "It's a love song to my dog Blaze, but also about a bully telling you what to do in a nasty way. I guess it's about home life being nice but work life being f...ed," shares Toby. Here, Toby gifts us a few insights into the band.
Who is GREG... We have been playing for almost a year; we are just friends that are enjoying being creative together. After I left my old band, I wasnt sure if I was going to do music anymore but I missed playing too much and the camaraderie that comes with being in a band.
We sound like... I am really not sure because it is too close for me to hear.
Our first gig was... It was in my house to about 10 of our best friends. They loved it and aren't biased at all.
In the studio we usually... We have only been once and we really enjoyed it, No Wave studios.
Social media is... Exhausting.
My favourite app at the moment is... Waze because it tells you where the cops and hazards are etc.
Life on the road can be... Rewarding and draining.
If you'll have us on your bill, all we ask is that our rider contains... Some beers.
The most scary scenario I've found myself in, was... Frankston McDonald's.
What celebrity/ famous person would you love to be spokesperson of the band... Adam Sandler.
If you had to live in a city abroad, where would you choose and why? Tokyo for nice food and it's not too expensive.
If we were coming over to your place, what would you cook us? Probably tacos.
When it comes to pets are you a lover or hater of our furry friends? I love my dog Blaze more than anything; he is a miniature Schnauzer.
No matter the expense, send me a case of... 196.
The last time I saw the inside of a gym was... About a month ago.
What's the one chore you dislike the most? Most admin.
Do you have any phobias... Small places.
Would you ever partake in a reality show? Nah.
If you could prank any of your friends, who's your target, and how are you bringing them down? I like when you drive past a friend, reach up to wave but then you just pull down the shade.
Best local takeaway joint for a midnight feed that will leave you with a food coma? All shut by midnight around here, so maybe the kitchen for some microwave nachos.
