Gary was perfect!

We heard many rave reviews from the crowd at our fundraiser... everyone loved them some Gary! He had a great sound and he’s super accommodating to the space and any restrictions. We’d hire him again in a heartbeat! Thanks Gary!

What to expect

I am interactive with the audience and like to put on a show with humor, sincerety and grit. My “Blackbird” by the Beatles might make you cuddle while my “Purple Rain” by Prince might make you cry and sing along. Hopefully my originals make you think.

I want your event to feel just as special as you do. Let’s make that happen.

About

All things in the universe owe its existence to sound. Sound waves produce a physical presence that allows for the building blocks of matter to function, mutate and eventually organize. Music is the most beautiful organized expressions of sound.

I have played guitar since I was 12. I always sang but didn’t take it seriously until I started playing in bands at 15.

Music makes people feel things more deeply. On most occasions it makes people happy. Allowing me to bring my form of happy sounds to your event is an honor moreso than a job. I am a songwriter and have a plethora of original material but also have a large collection of covers in my repertoire. Let me know what style you like and we can make your event charming and memorable.

Additional booking notes

I have a wide range of influences and a large collection of material.

I can croon your guest of honor’s favorite song or create something uniquely for them. I have to know at least a month in advance for special requests.
