Greg Hatza’s musical instincts came to him as early and as naturally as the ability to walk, and he was picking out blues and boogie woogie tunes on the piano around age four. The Hammond B-3 became Greg’s obsession as a teenager, when a friend turned him on to recordings by Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGriff, Ray Charles, and Johnny Hammond Smith. His first professional gig came when he was 16, with the Frankie Scott Trio, where he played around small towns in central Pennsylvania.
