Greg Kurstin
After secondary school, Greg moved to New York City to study with Charles Mingus's piano player Jaki Byard at The New School. Soon after, he played with jazz legends such as Bobby Hutcherson and George Coleman. Whilst in New York, Greg also spent much of his time playing and studying Brazilian music. As a result of his studies, he started to be a really competent player of the Berimbau. He played this instrument on sessions with Beck.
