Gary (aka: Spud) was born drumming and at 2 months old was the best air drummer in New England! He started playing drums at the age of 10 after a two week stint on the trumpet. His father didn't want him to play the drums fearing they woud make Gary go deaf. However after playing the trumpet at home, Gary's father informed his mother that he could play the drums after all! Herb Alpert was in no danger of Gary taking over his band....
Gary's major influences include Danny Seraphine of Chicago, Ian Paice of Deep Purple, Jeff Pocaro of Toto, Jon Bonham of Led Zeppelin and famous 60's and 70's studio drummer, Hal Blaine.
Gary, the drummer for the now disbanded 8084 can be seen playing live dates with various artists-check my schedule for dates. Catch Gary playing drums on the Late Night Saturday w/Tim Kavanagh theme song which can be heard Saturday nights at 11:30pm on CBS affiliate WCAX TV Channel 3 in Vermont. Gary's been in the studio a lot lately and can be heard on Ben Patton's "Because The Heart", "The Unquiet and Apart" and "Kaboom!". You can catch Gary on the new Carol Ann Jones release, Out Of The Blue, all of Keeghan Nolan's recordings (and select lives shows) as well as on the upcoming CD "Someone Like You" by John Ian Scott. Gary has also played on several tracks for Willard Way, Grace, John Cassel and Chad Ste. Marie.
Gary is available for live and session work and can be contacted at info@garyspaulding.com.
