Hey everyone! I wanted to wish you all a Happy Holiday season! It’s been quite a year for me, and although the last 4 or 5 months have been admittedly sparse when it comes to music related things for me, it has been a great few months. I got married to the most amazing woman in the world, honeymooned in Colombia (which I highly recommend for the travelers reading this), and visited Costa Rica again for work. Needless to say, it’s been busy… I also started working at the most awesome co-working space in San Diego, 3rdSpace! It’s right in the heart of University Heights, and is home to all sorts of great creative people. If you’re looking for a creative co-working spot, this is it!
It’s also that time of year again… A few of friends and I are compiling our Top 10 albums and songs of the year, and I thought I’d share mine here. If anything, maybe you can take a listen to everything, stir it up in a pot, and paint a picture of what the next Greg Gibson album will sound like! Yes, even (especially) the R&B and hip-hop… So here goes:
