For those who have witnessed a performance by Freddy Greene, it is apparent that there is magic in the air as he weaves his silky tunes. The energetic Jazz/Funk musician and composer weaves the smooth and mellow sounds of classic Jazz with innovative Funk. Born in Franklinton, NC, in what had once been a “juke joint” (The Chicken Shack), Greene was exposed to music and the art of performing at an early age. Freddy has appeared on the bill with Mary J. Bilge and Jaheim at the Alltel Pavilion (Raleigh, NC).

Freddy Greene was born in Franklinton, NC in what had once been a "piccolo joint" called The Chicken Shack, owned by his uncles Pete and Clarence Kearney. Prior to Freddy's birth, family friend and Father of the Blues (The late W.C. Handy) occasionally visited and performed there.
