About Chris Greve

I'm a very experienced performer of Irish/Celtic & other folk songs. I'm also a songwriter and can play originals shows and festivals.
Guitarist

Public liability insurance of £10 million

I am a Irish/Celtic singer and performer. I was born in London, spent most of my life in Canada, and have been living in England again since 2014. I currently live in London, but travel is not a problem for me. I'm very experienced and professional, and have performed at many festivals, television and radio events, private events, and pub shows.

We booked Chris for our Irish party and he delivered in spades. Everybody was singing along and really enjoying the night. Chris has some mileage as a performer and singer and he knows a ton of Celtic classics.

You won't notice Chris off stage, once on stage, though, his voice will cut the air like a knife and shake your soul like a tree in a storm! A rare true artist and you will be singing along and asking for more.
