I enjoy composing, arranging and recording music on an ever-expanding array of guitars, especially Fender electrics and Martin acoustics.  My musical journey began more than half a century ago, and every day brings new opportunities for continued growth as a musician.  My current leading influences include Jim Campilongo, Scotty Anderson and Guthrie Trapp.  I love Beethoven, Keith Richards, Henry Mancini, Aretha Franklin and a thousand others whose music has brought me joy, whether for many decades or for a few minutes.  I strive to learn something from every piece of music that I hear, and to make music that others will enjoy hearing.

I'm an amateur DIYer in terms of recording, doing everything in my music space at home and learning as I go.  I enjoy experimenting with a variety of microphones and mic placements, recording into a Zoom R16 and using Audacity as my DAW.  I use an array of Fender tube amps, all blackface/silverface reissues, and a modest pedal board.  I record acoustic instruments either with condenser microphones directly on the instruments or else amped through a Fishman Loudbox Mini.

Gregg began his music career as a drummer working the local circuit in Wilmington, Delaware.  He joined a popular local band, The Bees, which included Benny Preston (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epfGYLUURdQ), Bob Henegar, and Bob Carryer.  It was Bob Carryer, a graduate from the Berklee College of Music, who introduced Gregg to songwriting and collaborating in a variety of musical styles and genres. 

Gregg performed his own songs at local venues in Wilmington, Delaware using his pseudonym, Allen James.  He met veteran bass player and Blues vocalist, Jimmy Pritchard (https://jimmypritchard.com/), who at the time was organizing and managing a singer/songwriter venue at The David Finney Inn in New Castle.  Gregg became a regular at the David Finney and was invited to appear on the popular Cable TV spot, The Tim Qualls Show, where he performed his Blues/Rock song, Land of the Free.
  
Gregg’s compositions draw from many genres, including Easy Listening, Rock, Indie Rock, Jazz, Blues, and Country. His songs are fresh, visual, rythmic, emotionally gratifying, and possess a sweet sensibility that touch a spark with listeners.

Hello dear Soundcloud listeners,

I'm still determined to continue producing music, the music of Pier Will, which can only be heard on Soundcloud and which can also be recorded... for now.

The world of music is rapidly moving towards a huge upheaval where the true musician will very quickly become "rare," or even more and more of a shadow, a peculiarity, a memory. This time is not so far away, as AI takes a predominant place in everything that touches us and surrounds us and in Music, this can already be heard very clearly!

Apparently, everyone is taking this lightly, and the few diehards are being sneered at as anti-progress terrorists, for now. I already have two work computers disconnected from the internet, which house my software and everything I need to work. No more updates for them to work properly... updates are only necessary if you need to connect! Another computer is dedicated solely to internet connection and will be used exclusively for streaming the tracks.

This decision has serious consequences for my production, as there are no more options to add anything to it. It's a gamble, but for me, it's an obligation to remain completely independent and free from AI.

Pier WILL - ❤️🕊️🙏

Bonjour chers auditeurs Soundcloud,
Je suis toujours déterminé à continuer à produire de la musique, celle de Pier Will, que l'on ne peut écouter que sur Soundcloud et qui peut aussi être enregistrée… pour l'instant.

Le monde de la musique s'achemine rapidement vers un bouleversement majeur où le véritable musicien deviendra très vite « rare », voire de plus en plus une ombre, une singularité, un souvenir. Ce temps n'est pas si lointain, car l'IA prend une place prépondérante dans tout ce qui nous touche et nous entoure, et en musique, cela se voit déjà très clairement !

Apparemment, tout le monde prend cela à la légère, et les quelques irréductibles sont méprisés comme des terroristes anti-progrès, pour l'instant. J'ai déjà deux ordinateurs de travail déconnectés d'Internet, qui hébergent mes logiciels et tout ce dont j'ai besoin pour travailler. Plus besoin de mises à jour pour qu'ils fonctionnent correctement… les mises à jour ne sont nécessaires que si vous avez besoin de vous connecter ! Un autre ordinateur est dédié uniquement à la connexion Internet et sera utilisé exclusivement pour le streaming des morceaux.

Cette décision a de graves conséquences sur ma production, car il n'y a plus aucune possibilité d'y ajouter quoi que ce soit. C'est un pari risqué, mais pour moi, c'est une obligation de rester totalement indépendant et libre de toute IA.

Pier WILL - ❤️🕊️

If I find out that your song in my 'what I like' playlist uses genAI lyrics, voices or melodies without saying so, believe me, I will slap you hard and of course I will block you!

If AI generated crap-music accumulates on this and other digital music platforms listeners and *especially* musicians should ask themselves if online music production is worth their effort and if they might be better appreciated by focusing exclusively on live events and forget about the machine-infested online experience. For me the answer to this question is clear. If SC and others don't take measures to curtail machine generated junk, I am done here. (31.5.25)
