Greg Zlap
Blues, Jazz, Rock
Thomas Vollaire
Born in 1971 in Warsaw, Greg Zlap arrived in Paris in the late 80s, a
little harmonica in his pocket. In search of new sounds, he perfected
his art as an autodidact, and quickly became a sought after studio
musician. You find Greg’s harmonica in French Chanson, in the Slam
movement, or on film soundtracks. Untiring ambassador of his instrument,
Greg Zlap created in 1998 a harmonica school in Paris. Then, convinced
that music can do much more than nourish the soul, he launched harmonica
workshops for asthmatic children in hospitals.
Greg has a parallel solo career; he writes, composes and performs
the music that inspires him, taking roots in the blues, never forgetting
his Slavic soul. He has formed his group as a leader and already
produced 5 albums under his name. Singer with a captivating clear tone,
Greg Zlap surprises, seduces and conquers audiences wherever he goes! In
2009, French mega-star Johnny Hallyday chose Greg to accompany him on
“Tour 66”. On the road, between two hotel rooms, Greg Zlap composes and
feeds on the energy of the stage to finally record a new album, AIR, in
which he tells his breathtaking blues stories.
