Honors include two Sonic Guild grants, and they were the first Austin-based act to play the Moody Center.

They returned there for SPEAKS, which debuted to a sold out release show and earned radio praise in Austin for the single Hands. They later cut Hole in My Head at Escondido Sound with Curtis Roush, followed by MOTEL, crafted with Steve Berlin of Los Lobos and Grammy-winning engineer Michael Brauer, a collection inspired by life on the road and the connections made along the way.

Alastair Greene brings a blistering blend of blues and rock, pairing soulful vocals with fearless guitar work and a deep sense of groove. Raised in Santa Barbara and based in Austin, his musical path was shaped early by a household filled with piano and records by artists like The Beatles, Stevie Wonder, and Elton John, classical insights inspired by Bach and Beethoven, and a family legacy that includes his grandfather, trumpeter Chico Alvarez of the Stan Kenton Band. After early years on piano and saxophone, the guitar took center stage in high school as heavy rock and, ultimately, the blues lit the fuse, with influences ranging from B.B. King and Buddy Guy to Johnny Winter, The Allman Brothers Band, and Stevie Ray Vaughan. A Berklee College of Music alum, Greene founded his own band, released a dozen solo records spanning studio, live, and compilation projects, and earned accolades along the way, including a four-star DownBeat review and a Rock Blues Album of the Year nomination from Blues Blast Magazine, plus appearances on multiple year-end best-of lists. His resume includes global touring with the Alan Parsons Live Project, along with stints with Starship featuring Mickey Thomas and Blues Music Award winner Sugaray Rayford. He later teamed with Tab Benoit’s Whiskey Bayou Records, opened more than a hundred of Benoit’s shows across the United States, and went on to sign with Ruf Records. Recent releases highlight his live firepower. A concert EP captured in Las Vegas while opening for George Thorogood distills the band’s unfiltered energy, chemistry, and joy, featuring the single Temptation alongside Trouble At Your Door, Standing Out Loud, Slow Burn, and a fiery take on Meantown Blues in tribute to Johnny Winter. Expect funky, swamp-tinged rhythms, muscular solos, and a sound that nods to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, Gov’t Mule, The Allman Brothers Band, and Cream, all funneled through Greene’s own voice.
