BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Greg Laswell got his start in 1998 as the frontman of the band Shillglen, achieving moderate success a year later with their debut Sometimes I Feel. After the band broke up in 2001, Laswell decided to pursue a solo career as a singer-songwriter and recorded and released his breakout full-length LP Good Movie (2003), which won Best Local Recording at the San Diego Music Awards. He followed up with 2006's Through Toledo -- an album that resonated with fans and featured the popular tune "Sing, Theresa Says". He's toured around the world as a supporting act for occasional collaborators Sia and Ingrid Michaelson, and he’s headlined several sold-out shows of his own. Since the release of Through Toledo Laswell has recorded four more acclaimed albums, had his music featured in numerous films and television shows, and become widely known within the underground indie scene.
