Singer-songwriter Gregory Page’s positively charged album ‘One Hell Of A Memory’, which features his good friend & co-producer on the album Jason Mraz singing on several tracks, has had its UK & Ireland release today, 11th July 2025. The album, which was originally released in America and Holland in 2020 but didn’t get the attention it deserved due to the global pandemic, is set for a full re-release, including a new UK & Ireland version on vinyl and digital services with added songs.

‘One Hell Of A Memory’ imparts a message of optimism and urgency, complete with catchy melodies, beautiful harmonies and an array of special arrangements performed on Banjo, Fiddle, Mandolin and Irish Uilleann pipes by the likes of Dennis Caplinger (Eric Clapton) and Eric Rigler (Braveheart, The Titanic). While the sounds are reminiscent of yesteryear, the lyrics get us on our feet and dancing toward a brighter tomorrow. Page’s wordplay and compositions weave tradition with change, blending yesterday with the future and delivering us an uplifting album with all the feels, right now.

You hear it more and more, the phrase “these are strange times.” We wonder what lies ahead and what shape “normality” might take if and when life begins to sink back into a more relaxed pace, free from all of the anxiety. They say good can always come from adversity, of the anxiety. They say good can always come from adversity, and that’s how it’s been for Gregory Page, with time to pause, reflect and reassess much of what went before and hopefully look forward to brighter, less angst-filled days ahead.

Page’s last album, ‘A Wild Rose’, which Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull described as “Eclectic country-tinged folk music. Perfect for summer evenings on the porch. A great album”, tips a hat to his Irish roots that mean so much to him and was well-received on both sides of the Atlantic, and with this re-release of ‘One Hell Of A Memory’, he’s been tugged back even closer to that side of his life.

A highlight from ‘One Hell Of A Memory’ is ‘Right Now Not Tomorrow’, a rousing anthem, combining both Americana and traditional folk elements, for getting up, seizing the day and letting the good times roll ‘Right Now Not Tomorrow’. It’s impossible not to love the positive sentiment and gorgeous harmonies that burst out of this song like a ray of sunshine, encouraging all those of us languishing to embrace change and live for the moment.

Gregory Page was born and grew up in Enfield, North London. At 14 he moved to America and in 2013 he returned to London to open a show at The O2 Arena for his longtime friend and musical collaborator Jason Mraz, who credits Page for giving him his first show. Mraz & Page return to London on October 4th to perform at The Palladium, amongst an already sold-out UK tour. On coming back for the tour, Page said, “The 2025 UK shows supporting Jason is a path to introduce my music to his fans in the UK and in Ireland. I’m a chap from Winchmore Hill who is grateful for the opportunity to introduce my album ‘ONE HELL OF A MEMORY’ in the UK and in Ireland. I am a citizen of Ireland and tour around the globe using my Irish passport but due to a long comedy of errors I have not set foot (yet) in Ireland so playing there in October will be a huge blessing”.
