Hi there my name is Gary Boyd, my stage name is Wildcat. Its a nickname given to me by my friends years ago! A little about myself, I live in Seal Beach, CA. I am an avid surfer, fisherman and outdoorsman. Music has been a huge passion of mine since I was a little kid and I look forward to playing some songs for you! Im a very laid back, easy going human being and I love spreading a positive vibe. My performances are a blend of cover songs and original music that I have written; I love interacting with the crowd and making people laugh as well! At the end of the day music allows us to escape the rat race of the world we live in, so I try to bring that energy and mindset to every show I perform!
I have all my own sound equipment and can work with any stage set up as long as there are power outlets! I keep it very simple with two monitors, a small mixing board, my guitar and a microphone stand.
