Gregor is also the lead singer and guitarist with MadFish.
MadFish reached a certain notoriety with nationwide radio plays in the UK, with their 2014 UK World Cup Song winning anthem, ‘England’. Notably they were featured on BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio 5 Live.
The song competition was filled with controversy, when the organiser Mark Bellinger closed down the website and did a runner on the final day of the competition. He refused to pay out the promised prizes, when his own multiple entries failed to win both the top World and the individual Country prizes.

Gregor was also previously with late 70’s UK Mod / Punk band The Head.
The Head are renown for their collectable 1980 double A sided single featuring ‘Nothing to Do In a Town Like Leatherhead’, as included on Gary Crowley’s 2017 Punk and New Wave compilation.
Derided both by Kenny Everett at the time, as a contender for the ‘Worlds Worst Record’ and by Melody Maker as being “Beery cheer… and little else”, it is today a sought after classic. NtDIaTLL is coupled with the John Peel and Nicky Horne (London’s Capital Radio – Your Mother Wouldn’t Like It) favourite, ‘University ‘79’.
Both songs were recorded and produced by Ian Shaw, now an established record producer, who went on to enjoy chart success with amongst others Nick Heyward from Haircut 100.
