Originally from Long Beach, CA, singer/songwriter Greg Laswell moved to San Diego to attend college, where he soon became involved in the local music scene. He played in the band Shillglen and founded All the Rest Records, which went out of business in 2004, after which he started 20 Inch Records, where he worked as producer. In 2003, Laswell released his first solo album, Good Move, which garnered critical local acclaim, and three years later his Vanguard debut, Through Toledo, written after his wife left him, came out. ~ Marisa Brown, All Music Guide
