Greg Champion's career began in the Adelaide and Melbourne pub rock scenes of the Seventies.

By 1979, he had moved to Melbourne and met with success as front man of ground-breaking Melbourne rock band The Fabulaires, moving on to The Young Homebuyers.

Champs then gravitated to the world of Aussie Folk and Country Music, soon becoming a leading Australiana songwriter and performer.

By the Nineties, Greg had collected a number of industry awards and nominations. He twice won the comedy/novelty song category at the Tamworth Songwriters' Association Awards and has two ARIA nominations for comedy releases.

At the Tamworth Festival in 1994, he was awarded a Golden Guitar for the video of May Your Fridge Be Full Of Coldies.

During the "Noughties" Greg has received a swag of Victorian & National Country Music Awards including National Song of the Year, and has twice been awarded National Bluegrass Song of the Year.

In 2010 at the Victorian & National Country Music Awards, Greg was awarded Best Victorian Male Vocal for his moving tribute This Was My Town [Marysville] : a song about the destruction of the town he loved, Marysville in the bushfires of 2009.

Greg has entertained nationally and internationally since the Eighties and his performances have taken him as far as Nashville, New Zealand, France and Fiji.

His Australian folk style has led to regular appearances across the nation, as far afield as Weipa, Flinders Island, Keppel Island, Katherine, Coober Pedy,  Tamworth, Port Fairy and Upper Kumbuckna.

Champs concedes he's had a charmed life as part of the Folk and Country scenes, revelling in the bush travel and meeting locals and he continues to perform at key Festivals nationally and abroad.
