Greg's Band "Zamar  Athens"

"consistently invited back"

Greg is a member of an instrumental jazz band called Zamar Athens. The band has played for a number of public and private events in the Athens area in recent years, including 6 appearances in the Athens Blue Sky Concert Series.

Zamar Athens is an instrumental jazz quintet. The band has played both original pieces and jazz/pop standards, including items by Jobim, Gershwin, Monk, Coltrane, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, George Benson, Stevie Wonder, and many others (we've even been known to throw in some TV and movie themes!).
The band features Greg Clinton (guitars/flute), Art Grider (tenor sax, synth wind controller), and Tracy Reynolds (keys/flugelhorn). In 2008 the band has also featured upright bassist Dennis Baraw and drummer/percussionist Eric Brown. Other drummers we've worked with include long-time collaborator Chris Hood as well as Seth Hendershot, Janelle Clinton, and Ron Balthazor. Other bassists we've performed with include Chris Enghauser, Paulette Johnson, Jason Crowgey, Kevin Anderson, and Benji Barton. Alto saxophonist Jonathan Kilgore has also appeared with the group.

Past clients include the Athens Downtown Development Authority and the Stewart Clinic. Please call for reference contact information!

"Zamar", by the way, is one of the Old Testament Hebrew words translated "praise", and is associated with praising God through instruments.
