Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, Greg Lato was surrounded by an encouraging Italian family that included his father, legendary jazz sax player Vinny Lato, who owned an extensive vinyl collection that served as Greg’s introduction to the world of music. 
Greg went on to compose for film, TV, and other artists, most recently co-writing with The Voice runner-up Billy Gilman. Greg received two awards from the Billboard World Song Contest, had one of his music videos air on the FUSE channel, wrote a song for a film that went to #1 on the iTunes movie charts and spent 8 months in the Top 10, has written for network TV shows, has had his songs played in McDonalds, Subway, several department stores and Planet Fitness franchises, and co-wrote the Young Survivors theme song for the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Foundation.

Greg Lato is now highlighting and amplifying the voices of military kids and families with a special new project. The album, titled ‘Dandelion: Songs Inspired by Military Kids and Families’ got its name because the dandelion is the official flower of the military child. It represents the resilience and adaptability of military children. Greg has met and listened to these wonderful military families in order to make their voices heard through song. He is letting people know what they go through and endure to serve this country and allow us to enjoy the freedoms we all have.

"Sometimes a parachute can hurt the fall, you've never lived until you risk it all", sings Greg Lato on "Wish I Could Have Saved Us", the last track on his debut EP as Lato & The Nevers, Fire Between Us.

This new journey for Lato is a special and meaningful one, and a way to express himself like never before. Being a huge fan and listener of country music for as long as he can remember, this is a project he has always wanted to make. Lato says, "With every project I've done as a solo artist, it always started with the intention of leaning more country than pop, but being from the Northeast (Providence, RI), there wasn't a lot of encouragement in the past. It always ended up more pop/rock."

This time around,  Lato was able to just throw caution to the wind and go for it once and for all. "I decided to go with my heart instead of my head and take that leap." Working in NYC with the production team of Mercurio and Nadel, they utilized some of the best musicians NYC and Nashville has to offer. Things felt different. He was CRAFTING songs more than just WRITING them. Singing in lower keys brought out the honesty and richness in his voice he never knew he had. The full ensemble of musicians were set up in a live room recording basic tracks together, playing off one another and having a camaraderie that you can't get with musicians recording their parts one at a time. This amazing and adventurous experience just lent itself to more of a band atmosphere, therefore coming up with the name Lato & The Nevers. 

The first single Thinkin' reminisces about a love long gone that was probably over before it started:
“Sometimes I’m cruisin’ down the highway and think she’s sittin’ in the shotgun seat. She’s got her feet on the dash, hand on the radio dial, and her eyes on me.” , Lato sings.
Also dealing with the questions that come into everyone's mind regardless of their relationship's fate: "What are they doing now?", "Do they regret letting go?" and "Was it as hard on them as it was for me?"
Other songs on the debut EP 'Fire Between Us' talk about love being something that you don't have to physically see to feel and find (Believe Without Seeing), pleading with the one you love in a playful way for one more...(Can I Get It?), and the sarcastic love song (Love You Anyway) about all the things that make someone perfect for you, but you'll somehow learn to 'deal' with them.

Greg Lato of Lato & The Nevers has written with many recording artists including Billy Gilman, Jimmy McGorman (musical director for Cassadee Pope, Avril Lavigne, Weezer and Cher), Risa Binder, Amedeo (American Idol), Derek Capobianco, Ashley Jordan, Jesse Liam, Viana Valentine, and Rob Marin among many others. He also has received awards from the Billboard World Song Contest, had a music video premiere on the FUSE channel, and written for MTV and A&E network shows. He also co-wrote the theme song for the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Foundation titled 'I'll Give Your Weak My Strength' performed by Rob Marin and Kelley Lennon, which debuted at their monumental Flames of Hope celebration and was featured in the PBS special 'Behind the Ribbon'.
