Greg Wyard is a singer-songwriter, guitarist and bass player originally from Chelmsford, England. Greg moved to Canada at age 13 and settled in Toronto, earning a reputation as one of its most hardworking solo performers. Greg has a music degree from McGill University, and has released three original CDs from which his songs “Something I made up” and “What are you trying to prove” both placed in the Standard Radio National songwriting competition. An international performer, he has toured the United States, England, New Zealand, Australia and Norway.

Unapologetically melodic in his writing, Greg’s songs can’t escape the influences of the music that shaped him – The Beatles, Crowded House, Squeeze – and he loves to write pop songs that surprise you with an intricate little guitar line here or an unexpected key change there. 

As a cover performer, Greg has an encyclopedic knowledge of popular music. Known for his faithful reproductions of intricate classic rock songs such as Bohemian Rhapsody and Baba O’Riley using just his voice and guitar, he can play any one of a thousand songs off the top of his head.

Greg's latest song Guns and Money, released in October 2023, is currently working its way up the streaming charts. A melodic rocker, the song questions the authority of a hypothetical politician, and decries the all-too popular obsession with the two items in its title, Guns and Money.

Some words from others about Greg...

“If your goal is to graduate from the University of Melodic Pop-Rock, the professors you want to study with are obvious: The Beatles, of course, and other tune-scholars like Crowded House’s Neil Finn. Taking a page from Professor Finn’s text, Wyard excels in writing melodies that are extremely catchy, yet sound completely natural amidst some wonderfully wily song structures.”  ~ Canadian Musician Magazine
