Gary was born in Pueblo Colorado on December 18, Gary has had music on the mind from a very young age and was sandpapering his parents piano at age 3. Gary bought his first guitar when he was 7 from the guy up the street for $10. Putting steel strings in on that old guitar broke the neck in 6 months. That guitar was dispatched with the help of a big brother and an M80. Gary's parents bought a Sears Silvertone the next Christmas and the rest is history. Gary's influences include Eric Clapton, Stephen Stills, Neil Young, and all other talents that rock hard and make smiles
