In the first year and a half of his professional career, Gary Lee Michael, was nominated for Most Promising Male Vocalist of the Year and Independent Songwriter of the Year by the MIRL as well as the CMA “Eagle Award”. Gary also won the EIA Male Vocalist of the Year award, was inducted into the Alabama Country Music Hall of Fame and given an honorary membership to the CMA. In 1991, Gary was also appointed States Representative of the Southeast Region for the CMA.
Gary’s first single was “Daddy’s Little Girl”, a song that touched the hearts of people all over the world. This was evidenced when “Daddy’s Little Girl” became the most requested song for three weeks in Ireland. First lady Barbara Bush even sent a card thanking Gary for writing such a touching song. Radio personalities responded with great praise as well and to this day people still ask Gary about the song. The video was shown on CMT, “Shot Gun Red”, and “The Morning show”.
“Daddy’s Little Girl” was followed by “Wish You Didn’t Love Him The way I love You” and a third single entitled “Hometown Boy” that soared into the top 20 reaching 19 on the Billboard charts and 8 on the Cash Box charts. Gary’s most exciting moment in country music came when he looked at the charts and saw his song “Home Town Boy” at 19 with a bullet and Garth Brooks “Two of a Kind” at 20 with Vince Gil’s “Pocket Full of Gold” at 18.
Gary performed and held company with some of the biggest names in country including Garth Brooks, Randy Travis, Porter Wagoner and Ronnie Milsap.
Little did Gary know that several weeks later his promising career would come to a screeching halt…
Six days away from finalizing his deal with Warner Bros, Gary suffered a near fatal car crash. He remembers to this day, the sounds of the crash and fighting to free himself from the car before an explosion. Currently, Gary Lee Michael is in the studio finishing up a new album. His never-ending faith in God and his passion for music have brought Gary’s musical journey full circle. Gary’s now expressing his thoughts in song with an even deeper meaning and enjoying every minute............

You are in my thoughts and prayers continusly and I pray that you will have that Peace inside, Just know that I love you very much.
Follow your Heart and listen to that still small voice of God, he will be there with you thru Thick and Thin. I was listening to the Gospel CD that you sent to me a while back and it brought tears to my eyes, I will always treasure that CD. Thanks from the bottom of my Heart, I love you much. "Your Missy Always"

Gary I just wanted you to know that you became more than an entertainer to me the first time we met you. The love and concern that you expressed to me and Sonny went far beyond us being fans. You are a true friend. God has a calling for you to do and I like Linda know you will read this. Our prayers for total healing for you. We love you and will keep praying for you.
Gary, I have a strong faith in Jesus Christ, and it is his word that I beleive so when the doctors say there is nothing else we can do that is when God says I can do all things and when the future looks dim God can and will make it bright again for you keep holding on to the unchanging hand the hand that has the power to do all things and remember this song you wrote " Will You Help Me Lord" cause I can't help myself it is when you can't help yourself that God will carry you, he will never leave you nor forsake you and I am writing this tonight with a heavy burden in my heart for you and what you are going through but I know God's is going to bring you through this and stronger then ever he has a calling on your life and when you were ready to turned it over and worship him with your songwriting and talent the devil jumped in to attack you with more sickness but he has no power over God "Jesus Christ" our Saviour so I am trusting and believeing in total healing for you and trusting God that you will read this comment one day very soon... You have been wonderful and I love you from my heart....
