Austrian born guitarist Peter Greier started his musical journey at the age of six singing in the church!
Learning trumpet at the age of thirteen he switched to guitar one year later. While the first years of playing were mainly self-taught, he studied guitar seriously at the Conservatory of Innsbruck/Austria and the Munich Guitar Institute (MGI) with additional lessons by some of the finest players on the planet (Steve McKenna, Frank Gambale, David Becker,).
In the 80s to the early 90s he played in the local rockband «Precious Stone», releasing the Cd «feel it tonight».
As a session player he was hired for various musicals like «rent», »jesus christ superstar», »little shop of horrors», »Hair», »Grease» and several bands from rock to funk to fusion. Since 2003 he is in the band of Austrian’s Pop Idol winner Michael Tschuggnall.
Although since the very beginning of his musical carrier he was writing songs, it took many years to come to bring out his first solo release «eat this!» in 2009, featuring some of Austria’s finest musicans like Christian Wegscheider, Willi Langer and Alex Machacek. By merging all the different influences and styles he grew up playing and listening to, «eat this!» seems to cause quite an international stir not only to the worldwide guitar community.
