Musicians

Greg Rider was born in Mississauga but spent most of his childhood growing up in Waterdown, Ontario. Greg always knew he wanted to be an entertainer, starting his career playing on the street corners of Montreal. During this time, he was able to try out an open mic session at a small bar, and not long after that, he decided to move to Nashville to focus on his music full-time.

Greg returned to Canada two years later to work on his music back home and inspire Canadian youth to chase their dreams. He did just that when he traveled across Canada on an 85 school tour where he shared his original songs and told stories about his perseverance and overcoming anxiety and depression.

With 7 singles released to date, Greg Rider is best known for “16 Sticks”, a touching tribute to the 2018 Humboldt Bronco tragedy, which has over 200,000 streams and 750,000 video views.
