About Brian Greenway
Brian Gilbert Greenway (born October 1, 1951) is a Canadian musician who is the longest-serving member of the rock band April Wine, which he joined in 1977 and performs guitar, harmonica, and vocals duties. Prior to joining April Wine he was a member of the bands Mashmakhan and the Dudes. Greenway initially performed with April Wine from 1977 to 1986 when the band split, and again from 1992 to the present day. After founding member Myles Goodwyn disbanded April Wine in 1986, Greenway embarked a solo career and recorded his debut album Serious Business, which continued the traditional April Wine mix of hard rock and ballads. It is often said that Greenway is responsible for giving April Wine their "harder edged" sound. In 2016, Greenway formed a band called Brian Greenway's Blues Bus with former April Wine bandmate Gary Moffet (guitar/vocals), along with Craig Miller (harp/vocals), Mark Higden (drums), and Lloyd Dallaire (bass). In 1991, Greenway became the subject of his own hour-long television special entitled Brian Greenway and Friends.
