Greg Wilson-Copp Trumpet player, Techie and Singer (sort of). Greg has been playing trumpet for 20 years! Greg started playing in 'Cheltenham Youth Brass' at the age of 7. After spending several years as principle cornet, he found a home in 'Gloucester Excelsior Band', where he played on principle cornet for longer than he cares to mention. Greg also played with 'The Band of West Midlands Fire Service' in his year out. During his brief year at Warwick uni, Greg toured with the 'Warwick Big Band'. After a fantastically social year, Greg moved on to Birmingham UCE to study Music Technology. Oddly enough Greg barely played the trumpet in these 3 years, but is now paying for it in spades as 'The Roving Crows' work his lips to the bone. Greg also owns and runs a small home studio (Sound Shack Studios), and can be held accountable for the recording and mixing you hear on the 2011 EP.
