After studying music and culture in Havana, Cuba, Greg moved to New York City to continue his studies in jazz/classical and develop his skills on the trumpet. During this time Greg studied and worked with many artists including James Brown drummer Jabo Starks and Lauryn Hill. After touring with indie band Beirut, he settled in Brooklyn to focus on electronic production with longtime friend Nick Debruyn.
