About this concert
HELP! HELP! We need all musically inclined hands on deck to pitch in to preserve a piece of ROCK 'N' ROLL HISTORY!
Greg in Good Company is teaming up with The John McCloy Band to play a benefit show raising money for the one-of-a-kind musical refuge and rock star incubator known as The Alley Music Studios, which is in danger of being DEMOLISHED if the owner can't pay off the mountain of legal fees acquired when saving the historic space from demolition a few years ago.
This Los Angeles gem, nestled in the North Hollywood Arts District since 1973, has hosted pretty much every iconic band and artist that has made an impact on rock music -- The Beatles, Tom Petty, Jimi Hendrix, Alice Cooper Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Rolling Stones, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Jack White (to name a few) -- and their signatures are on the walls to prove it. If those walls could talk, they'd tell some AMAZING stories. Fortunately, we'll have owner John Strand and his staff on hand to share those stories, along with guided tours of the hidden treasure that has been harboring the spirit of rock 'n' roll in the City of Angels for nearly five decades.
Trust us when we say you'll feel the magic as soon as you walk in, and you'll see why this funky treehouse of a studio was the preferred rehearsal and recording space for music icons you've been listening to for most of your life. We're honored to be playing this intimate show on a stage where some of the greatest albums of all time have been conceived, and hope you'll be excited to join us for an evening of live music and storytelling.
$10 cash donation at the door (no credit or debit, Bank of America is across the street) includes a COMPLIMENTARY BEVERAGE (beer, wine, soda, bottled water), and we highly encourage you chip in a few more bucks -- either through additional donations or purchasing more drinks -- to help The Alley team meet their fundraising goal.
ADDRESS:
5064 Lankershim Blvd.
North Hollywood, CA 91601
DOORS OPEN @ 6pm (enter through door on Lankershim) for tours
MUSIC STARTS @ 7pm

ALL FUNDS RAISED GO DIRECTLY TO THE ALLEY. We're not keeping a cent. Please join us!
Sincerely,
GIGC and The John McCloy Band

Greg in Good Company Biography
GREG IN GOOD COMPANY is rock ‘n’ roll full of heart and soul. Based in Los Angeles, the 5-piece indie band launched by singer-songwriter Greg Gilman in 2015 is leading the explosion of timely Americana out of Southern California.
“The songs are written for you to think, reflect and question. And that, is a very good thing,” OnStage Magazine wrote after listening to GIGC’s debut LP, American Way, a 2018 record Impose Magazine described as, “a stirring, heartfelt experience.”
Cinematic melodies paired with heartfelt lyrics and irresistible harmonies have become hallmarks of the band’s unique sound — a mix of alternative rock, folk, country, pop and soul — topped off by Greg’s dynamic and raspy vocals, drawing comparisons to Bruce Springsteen, The Lumineers, Pearl Jam, and Mumford & Sons. “Some people give you a piece of themselves when they sing and Gilman is that kind of vocalist,” IndieMinded wrote in 2018 while praising fan-favorite track, Carrie’s Song, which the music magazine described as “a soulful, blues revival track with a gospel tinge that absorbs you.”
After 2019 single Monster’s Lair spent six months straight in regular rotation on one of LA’s most beloved adult alternative rock stations, The Independent 88.5 FM, GIGC slowly began recording and recently more singles. Mulholland at Midnight, a rock ballad paying tribute to one of LA’s most iconic roadways, premiered on 88.5 FM before Underground Music Collective hailed it as “a masterpiece.” Before that, the band released sentimental folk-rock single Heaven Is a Moment Here with You, which premiered in American Songwriter, and was featured as 88.5 FM DJ Nic Harcourt’s “Fresh Squeezed Track of the Day.”
Harcourt, the former music director of KCRW, once again took a liking to Greg in Good Company with the band’s most recent release, Just a Sunset, which the legendary radio DJ premiered and featured on his personal Spotify playlist.
GIGC hit the road throughout the summer of 2021 to perform small shows in Austin, Texas and Nashville, Tennessee, but the definitive highlight was performing to a sea of people at Montana’s Red Ants Pants Music Festival, which attracted 15,000 people, and featured incredible bands like The Lone Bellow, The Mavericks, and Watchhouse.
The band — including Lee (vocals, keys), Marty Vites (lead guitar), Alex U’Ren (bass) and Alexa Brinkschulte (drums) — is now poised to finish recording their second album for an expected 2022 release.
