Gregory Scott Glasson (born December 6, 1974) is an American bass player. He has played bass for Grammy Award winning artist Seal both live onstage and in studio recordings.[1] Glasson is also widely known as a solid session player, and has been featured on numerous albums, for a variety of artists. Mostly sought after in the Pop rock field, Glasson has played on major label tracks for artists such as Seal, Alanis Morissette and producer Josh Harris.[2]

Born in Princeton, New Jersey, Glasson grew up in Pennington, New Jersey and graduated from Hopewell Valley Central High School, before attending the University of Maine.[3] At the age 19 he was on the road playing with 90's roots rock act Dear Liza opening for Blues Traveler[4] on their multiplatinum Four tour, as well as extensive tours with Derek Trucks Band and a handful of dates on the traveling 90's festival H.O.R.D.E.[5]

A decade of touring and recording led to more session work for major labels and indie bands in NH. Greg currently plays full-time with Mother Superior & The Sliding Royales and Tan Vampires.[6]
