about
Greg Annussek first picked up a guitar in his early 20s with the aim of learning a few chords and strumming along with some classic tunes by the Beatles and Elvis Costello. Within a few years this freelance writer from New York City was moonlighting as a singer-songwriter, producing a catchy variety of alternative rock blended with elements of country and folk. To some music critics, his roots-rock echoes and memorable hooks have called to mind the likes of Jakob Dylan, Matthew Sweet, and Ron Sexsmith among others. Greg’s debut CD "Little Palaces" offers a number of musical choices, from the indie rock of tunes like “Young Again” and “In the Movies” to the twangy alt-country of “Long Way Down. As Shredding Paper magazine put it, "Annussek sleekly takes parts of pop, western, and electrics, and mixes it into a non-acoustic version of the singer-songwriter tradition. It's nice to see the tradition stretched in directions beyond its standard confines." Songs from the album, which was produced by Ernest Adzentoivich, have been licensed by a number of TV shows such as Big Brother, Flipping Out, and Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.
