Og lidt presse skal vi da ikke snydes for:
MacPherson was born 30 years ago in the Sydney City Hospital, half a kilometer from one of the most polluted body of water in North America, and half an hour walk from his family home at Canadian Forces Base Sydney. He grew up on radar bases all over Canada; a base-brat in the shadow of the cold war, and a student of regional diversity and disparity. He was raised in front of a television, got a degree in Labour History in the mid-nineties, dug graves in a cemetery for 6 years, and turned to music both for an escape from the uniform and as an outlet for his considerable creativity. Along the way MacPherson learned how to work hard and he hasn’t looked back. Multiple day jobs and a relentless touring schedule has seen Greg a janitor playing his music for punk rockers in Washington D.C. and a factory worker playing for thousands of people on folk festival stages across Canada. The ordinary becomes important."
