Armed with a magnetic stage presence that allures anyone who gets to witness him perform live, an innate charisma that is palpable, and multiple gifts including singing, songwriting, playing multiple instruments, engineering, and producing, record label owner and artist Greg Hoy is a maverick, bringing to the table the kind of confidence and skills that you can only earn. But as he describes himself, he is ‘just a man in a band,’ which may feel like an understatement for a man who seems to have the world at his fingertips. His richly eclectic music is an invitation to consciousness. He started writing his own music to express his lyrical ideas, the melodies running through his head, as well as his perceptions about life and living. His catchy and infectious style of music has gained acclaim and enthusiasm from listeners in live venues.
“Yay For Effort” is the lead single off his new LP of the same name. This track is an invitation to move and groove as its lyrical depth resonates with profound relatability.
The crunchy guitar solo and punchy drums create a rhythmic pattern that is captivatingly complemented by Greg’s ear-friendly vocals. As the track gains pace, the subtle riffs seamlessly blend with that unforgettable hook in the song’s heart, creating a sonic moment to savor.
The more the track progresses, the more Greg unleashes this timeless medley of tight riffs, resounding drums, and steady bass, creating a high-energy rock sensation that punches right through the chest.
“Yay For Effort” also features a complementary music video that is visually striking and a blend of the floating lyrics over hauntingly eye-catching visuals of Greg’s performance.
This is an infectious masterpiece that is worth every second and a must-have record for any alternative and indie rock fanatic.
