Gregory Toro was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts.  He fell in love with music and rhythm as a child, and at the age of ten joined a neighborhood steel band that played calypso and church music on weekends.  He later took up guitar and piano, but found his true calling as a bass player when he was sixteen years old.  Greg studied electric and upright bass and jazz composition at Berklee College of Music, where he had the opportunity to collaborate with musicians from many different countries and cultures.  He has gone on to travel the world with jazz and rock groups, and continues to perform nightly in a wide variety of styles.
