Greyson Chance Boy Wonder

December 28, 2011 By 17 Comments

Greyson Chance has been featured in quite a few entertainment and lifestyle articles across the web but one of the most well written, all-telling ones yet was just published by Justine Koh of The Urban Wire and we had to share it with you!

Koh reviews some of the highlights of Greyson’s young career, where he came from and how he got to where he is as well as what sets him apart from the crowd

“His sincerity and maturity shines through in his first release “Hold On ‘til the Night”, a collection of sophisticated piano-driven pop songs that project his wonderful emotional range. It makes you thankful that this is a far cry from the bubblegum pop album – vapid tween anthems included – you’d expect from a pop singer his age.”

greyson-chance-the-urban-wire-2 She talks about Greyson in many different lights, “The Overnight Sensation”, “The Ambitious Artiste”, “The Hardworking Student”,  ”The First-Time Actor”, “The Media-Savvy Nice Guy”, “The Prankster”, “The Tourist in Singapore” and beleive it or not, “The Insecure Teen”.

“Since his much talked-about debut in 2010, Greyson has been nothing short of a welcome relief in the overcrowded pop scene of today. Whether the impassioned singer-songwriter is standing up for what he believes in through his many different undertakings or delivering his wisecracks with a twinkle in his eye, one thing you can be sure of is that he isn’t going to let show biz change him.”

We invite you to read the complete article over at The Urban Wire.
