Greg Roy

Vocalist. Song Writer. Musician. Spirit.

GREG ROY - Roots reggae artist best known for his original blend of music, fiery stage presence and uplifting, poetic performance style.

Born Gregory Whitehead in Montego Bay, Jamaica, Greg Roy’s journey into the reggae music scene began as a song writer, sound engineer, record producer, and host for Jamaica 91.7’s “Our Views on Rastafari” radio show. His talent for creating original music began at an early age and was influenced by elder reggae greats. Adopting the name Mr. Ice, he formed his first band along with his brothers and friends and released his first single. After landing in the Bronx, NY in the late 1990's, Mr. Ice entertained new audiences and moonlighted as a host for Linkage Radio. In 2014, the journey continued to the Boston, MA area, and after a period of self-discovery, Mr. Ice took a step to the back to allow a more mature, philosophical, and soulful GREG ROY to emerge. With acoustic guitar in hand, Greg Roy continues to deliver spiritual, socially-conscious anthems and messages of love.

Two-time nominee for Boston Music Awards International Artist of the Year (2020 & 2019). Former lead vocalist for Boston’s Bob Marley cover band, The Duppy Conquerors (2016-2019). Featured artist on many international collaborations.

“This is a moment when the entire world can come together with one aim and one goal, not fighting each other or destroying nature.” - Greg Roy, “Get Out” 2017
