"It's about walking downtown, listening to Lee Morgan's Sidewinder on my headphones and nearly getting run over crossing Fanshawe St," says Greg.
Headlights was recorded live - in one take - at Mt Eden's Lab studios. New York-based filmmaker Andrew B. White was also on hand for the video shot in Auckland and New York.
Greg and band are well into recording their fourth record. Recording began in June 2017 at The Lab in Auckland.
Produced by Greg and Working Poor members Wayne Bell and Andrew Thorne it's a record that displays the band's increased sense of confidence and versatility.
"Going in all we knew is we didn't want to make a ROCK record - we haven't - but it rocks anyway," says Greg.
"But there's a wider range of textures on display this time out - acoustic, country influences and dirty urban blues... it's the kind of record I want to listen to - and one I hope will draw a whole lot of new fans."
The 12 track album is due for release in September 2017.
